Replied off line. In summary, I didnt have one lying around. Structures of the status records are taught in the Advanced DataStage class, so someone attending this class may end up saving David some work! Dont forget also that the MetaStage product (version 2.0 out real soon!) automatically captures "process metadata" and can be used to perform these kinds of analyses.
