Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
A Boolean value that specifies whether the job has at least one job step.If True, the job has at least one job step. If False, the job does not have any job steps.

Remarks

Microsoft SQL Server Agent jobs must have at least one job step to be executable. Define and add JobStep objects to the JobSteps collection of a Job object to create job steps. This alters the value of the HasStep property.

Examples

The following code example indicates whether the job has at least one job step.

C#

Server srv = new Server("(local)");
Job jb = new Job(srv.JobServer, "Test Job");
Console.WriteLine(jb.HasStep);

PowerShell

$srv = new-object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server("(local)")
$jb = new-object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Agent.Job($srv.JobServer, "Test Job")
Write-Host $jb.HasStep
