I'm having a problem getting a list of users. From the main menu I select 1 for User Admin. The next menu, I select 1 for Local Voice User. The next menu, there are soft keys listed at the bottom: Exit, Add, View/Modify, Delete, Find. I believe these these are selectable by using function keys F1 - F5. F1 through F4 work fine. I want to use the Find feature so I'm hitting F5. Nothing happens. When I use Procomm, I turn on the monitor window to see whats happening. F1 to F4 are sending characters. F5 does not. The characters being sent are:

F1=<esc>OP
F2=<esc>OQ
F3=<esc>OR
F4=<esc>OS

I can emulate the function keys by pressing escape and the letters representing the function key. I tried escape OT to emulate what I believe would be F5. This didn't work. I tried all Function keys and escape sequences from <esc>OT through <esc>OZ. Nothing happens. Does anyone know what the escape sequence is for the fifth softkey?

Thank you
 
I use Procomm Plus most days in VT 320 MODE. f1 TO f4 work fine, but I use f10 to replace the f5 key on the screen.

All the best
