I still don't know how to get the CRTL+F to work, but I did find a
work around. I figured out that %E represents ALT on my scanner,
contrary to the documentation I've found. And I notice that I could
achieve the results I wanted with the CRTL+F by doing an Alt+E+F,
which was to open the find dialog. So my problem is solved. Thanks
to everyone who tried to lend a hand.

Whether they can be scanned in another question. But Ctrl-F should
be CHR(6) (or whatever report command produces chacters from ASCII
decimal code in your particular reporting tool).

My Welch-Allyn scanner book shows the CTRL "pairs" as being coded
with a preceeding $ as in $F for the ACK character which is what a
Ctrl-F is. The same table shows %B and %C for FS and GS characters
so I am assuming a barcode (in Code 39) of *$F* should work. The
original post didn't mention if this was tried.
