comjf, This property can be accessed and written directly in Perl. It can be expanded into 168 characters of 1's and 0's that signify on and off for each hour of the week. This result can be checked, altered, and then written back to the account if necessary. This approach would be much faster than parsing through text output on 'NET USER'.
If you tire of solution or would like to explore this avenue further, just let me know.
