In a system I manage there are several SQL Server Agent jobs that run based off schedules defined within dbo.sysschedules.
I would like to create a calendar view on my application that will display when each of these jobs would be scheduled to run in given time span. For example, if I have schedule that's set to run on the first and fourth Monday of the month at 8:00 AM, then given the timespan of the current month (4/2013) I would like to get the dates "4/1/2013 8:00AM, 4/22/2013 8:00AM" back.
Has anyone come across a method for accomplishing this? I know that I could read in the schedule definition and figure this out pragmatically, but I was curious whether anyone has already come up with the solution before I get into the weeds myself.
Thanks!
