    Start with the sysjobactivity table, and you should be able to come up with something that fits your needs.

    I don't have a 2000 server to test agaisnt, but assuming the table is still the same, i *think* this will give you teh results you are looking for?

    SELECT

    DATEDIFF(minute,start_execution_date,getdate()) AS ElapsedMinutes,

    *

    FROM msdb.dbo.sysjobactivity

    WHERE start_execution_date IS NOT NULL

    AND stop_execution_date IS NULL
