Well, read the management classes into a table, with name, number of days to keep after creation, number of days to keep after last access. Then read each dataset, look up the management class, and report creation date, last access date, and the two deletion dates. I believe the data set is deleted when the first deletetion date is reached. Accessing the dataset would extend that deletion date, you would have to change the management class name or the management class to extend the other date. You may need to educate them on why you have the 4 dates instead of the 2 they requested.
