Is it possible in RPG to display a window when user tab to a

Our process engineering department wanted to know whether it is
possible to do or not in RPG. Our practice is to press F4 key to
display a window. I was just checking if anybody in the RPG world is
doing this kind of stuff in their shop. <<snip>>
Really taxing my memory... But I seem to recall doing something like
that for the WRKQRY screen, by using a screen-scraping application [a
variant of the CM Mouse utility for the PComm 5250 emulation]. IIRC,
effectively the Tab was dynamically replaced by a Tab+F4 macro. The
support was activated by the screen-scraping utility having [been
"coded" to have] recognized that the active display was the Work with
Queries application display; i.e. the utility could be taught to
recognize a particular menu\display-panel, and to correlate specific
executable actions accordingly [including mouse actions].
