Wow, SQL Server Express 2005, with Management Studio Express, is secretly also kind of fucking shiny today.

You know, SQL Server is really starting to piss me off. Either it or my ignorance of it.
I run a job, and it fails. If I double-click on 'Failed', it tells me to view the history log for details. So I do, and the message is, 'The package execution failed. The step failed.'
Reeeal useful. I have to execute the package in that step (found in the log) manually, using dtexecui.exe, so that I can get why the package failed.
Two major irritations:
- Why do I have to go to three or four different places just to get an error message that's useful?
- Why do I keep clicking on that 'Failed' link, when it never tells me anything useful?
