The current CommonAdjust docs are really sparse. I think what you want to 
do is achievable, though you will probably need to modify your pricing 
database structure somewhat.

I strongly recommend you get your hands on an old MV3 or MV4 tarball - 
extensive CommonAdjust documentation and examples can be found in those 
older versions.  I believe they are still available at ftp.akopia.com.
