Subject: reprogramming the function keys for the vt100 emulator

Could someone please tell me if it is possible(and if so, how)to
reprogram the function keys after starting up the /com/vt100. 

We have a program written on another system that is menu-driven.
It runs on vt100 terminals and expects certain escacpe sequences
from the function keys. I am able to log into this remote system
with the combo. vt100/emt command. If I type in the escape sequence 
manually the particular function works O.K. I try using the kd...ke 
DM window command but it seems like the vt100 overrides these attempts 
as soon as i move the cursor back into the vt100 window (the help 
pages mention that some commands will do this). 

Thank you in advance
