Remarks

Scheduled SQL Server Agent activities, such as jobs, can have start and end dates. A job is run at the points indicated in a schedule only between the start date and time and the end date and time. Alter the ActiveStartDate property to set the date at which the schedule becomes effective.

Note  When SQL-DMO uses a scaled long integer to represent a date, the integer is built as a sum of the year scaled by 10000, the month scaled by 100, and the day. For example, the date April 19, 1998 is represented by the long integer value 19980419.
