This is gonna be living hell to deal with in DCL.

Suggestion: grab a copy of perl5 and use Schedule::Cron to cycle the jobs with the vms-ish file system to handle lookups.

Main advantage is giving you a single point to track the results -- instead of having to deal with all of the /after options and separate jobs.

With Schedule::Cron you can feed in a "crontab" file or use $cron->add( $schedule ) to generate the jobs w/in your code.
