Prototype (C/C++)
HRESULT GetCurrentRunStep(SQLDMO_LPBSTR pRetVal);
Note SQL-DMO strings are always returned as OLE BSTR objects. A C/C++ application obtains a reference to the string. The application must release the reference using SysFreeString.
Remarks
For executing jobs, the property reports the job step by number, and the name of the job step as a string, for example: 2 (Run Replication Agent.).
CurrentRunStep is 0 (Unknown) for idle jobs or whose execution status cannot be determined (CurrentRunStatus can be SQLDMOJobExecution_Idle, SQLDMOJobExecution_Suspended, or SQLDMOJobExecution_Unknown).
