Query SQL DTS sechduled Job History

Is there a way of querying the MSDB database on SQL server for the history of a DTS sechduled Job.

What I would like to do is to query the database and get back if the job was suggestful or unSuggestful and how long it took to run the job.

I relise you can do this within steps in a dts job, but if the server is rebooted the dts job will not do this.

Can any one tell me which tables I need to query and the columns within that table.

Thanxs for Reading

Or you can run

exec msdb..sp_help_job

to use more complicated job logic built in MS procedures (for last job run).
