That key doesn't return a value for me when using the key mapper utility keybcf which means it cannot be mapped.

You can test this by opening up a Visual COBOL command prompt from the Start menu and then running the program keybcf.
Select the Alter Function Key option and then Alter ADIS function keys.

When prompted for a key sequence press the key that you wish to map.

If it doesn't return a value then it cannot be mapped.

If it does return a value then you can map it to the option for Next Tab stop and it will become a Tab key.
