| Add a dummy step as the first step then you can use sys job step history table in msdb.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.SSIS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |

Run_Status seems to show if the job was a success or not. What if I want to see if a job is still running?Thanks
