It should be joba.$JobStatus=DSJS_STOPPED actually.

Job D is executing the JobA is stopped programatically .
if the user press the stop button at that time job d is not executing
can any one tell me where i am wrong

What do you mean by 'stopped programatically' exactly? Either way should generate the same status, as far as I know.

And I was just trying to point out that you posted the status value with a 'dot' between the two words when it actually needs to be an 'underscore'. Did you make that change?

[kkreddy]

Job_Activity_3.$JobStatus = DSJS_STOPPED

i am getting the warning message Variable 'DSJS_STOPPED' never assigned a value.

Ok, nevermind. I was looking at the defines in the dsapi.h file where it is listed as DSJS_STOPPED. However, the trigger wants the dot in the middle or DSJS.STOPPED, so go ahead and change it back. Sorry about that.

You might still want to explain what you mean by 'stopped programatically' and if you see a different status in the Director when the job is stopped by different means. I was under the impression that both would be the same if the end result was 'Stopped', but this is not a situation I've ever tried to handle, the checking for a stopped job in a Sequence job.

dsapi.h is intended to be used in C and C++ programs, where the "." has another meaning entirely.

For BASIC routines, use JOBCONTROL.H as the preferred header file.
