> 1. How does the exec know when the person hits the PF3 (END) key
Check the return code immediately after you display the panel, like this:
exit_code = 0
do while exit_code = 0
"DISPLAY PANEL(MYPANEL)"
select
when rc = 0 then call PROCESS_INPUT
when rc = 8 then exit_code = 8
otherwise do /* Unexpected error; e.g. panel not found */
exit_code = 16
"SETMSG MSG("zerrmsg")"
end
end
end
EXIT exit_code

You might need to use the ISPF panel REFRESH command.
