When you look at the job outcome in Enterprise Manager there is a lot of text; but, if you look at the MSDB..Sysjobhistory table or any other view or proc that displays job information the text is limited to ~ 255 characters. Anyone know of a way to get the full text returned in a query?

Thanks.

Does changing the Tools..Options..Results..Maximum characters per column value to 5000 in Query Analyzer fix the problem?

Lol. Thats what I hate about new contracts. It's always a pain to setup everything to the way it needs to be.

Thanks.
