Default Forcing a Screendump?

Hi all,

I need to make a screen shot report on some of my programs as soon as
the users presses the accept-key to start processing transactions for
audit purposes. I've been using the DBSCREENOUT for years and know
this to be the easiest way to get a screen dump but the problem is
that Control-P has to be pressed for this to work. I have over 500
programs and they all need to be standard so changing the accept-key
to Control-P is out of the question (my current accept-key is F9). Is
there a way to make the screendump without pressing Control-P? Like
calling whatever informix function is called when control-p is
pressed? If not then is there a c function that can emulate a keypress
so I can emulate a Control-P when user presses F9? INFORMIX-4GL
Version 7.30.HC4P1, INFORMIX-ESQL Version 9.40.UC2, HP-UX alpha
B.11.00 U 9000/800. Big thanks in advance
