Yup, just knocked up a simple example with Keyboard Shift "I".

I can confirm what John and Joe suggested - it works just fine and appears to achieve what you want. I also used RTNCSRLOC and DSPATR(PC) to get the cursor where I wanted after F4 is pressed. (Too lazy to use CSRLOC and the File Feedback Area.)

Give it another go, Jay.

Yes, this looks like exactly the answer, John. You can tab to the field but cannot enter data.

thanks!

Hmm... how about a "keyboard shift" (a.k.a. data type, position 35) of I?

Well, I tried this myself just now, and it seems to work the way you want.
