Aldo writes "I got a Stored Procedure which useses PRINT-Statements. I call the procedure in a DTS and want to write the output of the prints in a File. How can I do that? I am not the owner of the procedure. Here is a part of the procedure:

...
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
SET @stmt1 = 'EXEC sp_delete_job @job_name = ''bck_tlog_'+@dbname+''''
SET @stmt2 = 'EXEC sp_delete_job @job_name = ''bck_full_'+@dbname+''''
SET @dbtitle = '-- '+@dbname
PRINT ''
PRINT @dbtitle
PRINT @stmt1
PRINT @stmt2

FETCH NEXT FROM cur_dbname
INTO @dbname
END
..."

Print statements just fill the output buffer which isn't easily accessible. They are not a good thing to have inside an sp.

==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
