...but the command as given throws up a syntax error because the comma isn't there...

Sure, I was lazy and didn't check the syntax, and I'm not going to bitch about such meaningless things as points.

The remark about Microsoft not documenting things is a significant one - Wasn't this at the heart of some anti-competition lawsuit some time ago?

One question I do have, however. Is SQLServerAgent *ALWAYS* not installed on SQL Express? If this is not the case, does running the command on Express still give the same error if it is installed? (I hope not!)
