F1 key in here document?

Wierd question, but I am trying to write a quick script that will run an application, update one screen of info and then exit. The problem is that I need to pass the current date and use both the F1 and F4 keys in doing the changes.

Can I pass variables into a here document in my script? and is it possible to use an escape sequence to simulate the F1 and F4 keys?

Some DBA asked me if we could do this and now my brain is bound and determined to figure out how.
