Hi Joni, I use the following select statement's to find out daily error messages. The morning operators run this script each morning and notify an administrator if there is a problem. In the following script I just pull out certain messages, you can add or delete these to suit your needs. Some of the messages needs to have orig=server while others need to have orig=client. Since my backup window started yesterday at 16:00 ended at 9:00am this morning, this is the timeframe of the querys. Maybe you could modify this to do what you need.
