SQL2000 job step

  • Hi, i need to know where I can get the command in job aside from sysjobsteps. I'm using sql2000.. When I query the job in sysjobsteps, the command column is incomplete.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Hi,

    If the column is incomplete it is probably related to your SSMS settings. Go into "Tools\Options" select "QueryResults\SQLServer\ResultsToGrid" and check the maximum number of characters retrieve. Change the setting to the appropriate value and bingo, you can now see all of the data.

  • thanks. But I need to just query it.. The column command has a length of 3200. And the command in job is more than 3200 characters.

  • Then there has to be another row in the table to contain the rest of it. syscomments works exactly like that with the text column and colid (rowid).

  • Thanks.. I got it..
