Ron writes "When I added an instert statement in my sqlscript to backup a Transaction log I get a syntax error.
The scipt is being run through a sql agent job
osql -E -i h:\DBAScripts\cc3_test_rgg.sql -o h:\DBAScripts...


before :
backup transaction cc3 to disk = 'E:\daily_backups\cc3_transaction.bkp' with noinit

-- the above ran fine.
----------------------------------------------------------
new logic :
use cc3
Insert into work_prod_job_history (jobname, schedule, Completion_date, Status)
Values ('CC3_rgg_Test', 'Daily ', getdate(), 'Started')
Go
backup transaction cc3 to disk = 'E:\daily_backups\cc3_transaction.bkp' with noinit
go

gives me a : Incorrect syntax near 'backup'. error

If i just do the insert,it runs fine. Or do an insert after the backup, it seems to run fine, but I can't seem to mix them together.

We are running sql server 7.0

Thanks for any help"
