The requester copy library:
Creates and initializes an array to store the acceptable values for the field.
Displays the first value in the array when the screen is first displayed.
Displays the next acceptable value every time the end user presses function key
F5.
Notice that the code in the requester copy library displays only the field, not the entire
screen, if the base screen has already been displayed. By restricting the display, this
code prevents the application screen from flickering every time the end user presses
F5.
