As far as I know, it can’t be done.
You can control where the cursor can move when keys such as the tab keys are pressed, but you can’t stop a user from pressing the cursor movement keys (the “arrow” keys) to move to anywhere on the screen. You can control where your program moves the cursor, but the user is in control of the cursor itself.
Technically, if you lock the keyboard, you can remove control from the user at least in some emulators and on most terminals. But while the user has the ability to type in a field, the keyboard isn’t locked.

Tom’s right
you can send the file to the screen with the cursor anywhere you want it but you cannot stop the mouse and arrow keys from moving it anywhere on the screen. When the user returns control to the program, you can detect the location of the cursor and you could display a warning message if the cursor wasn’t where it should be.
You can prevent entry into the other fields, perhaps with the DSPATR(PR).
