Can I use my Schengen business visa for a holiday?

Unlike the United States, there's no split between "business" and "holiday" visas. For example, check this document listing -- among many other things -- the categories of visas:

  • Short stay visa: a β€œSchengen” visa one or multiple entries, allowing the holder to stay in the Schengen Territory up to 90 days per 6 months
  • Long stay visa: Visas for stays exceeding 90 days are national visas, and are issued by member states in accordance with national legislation.
  • Airport transit visas: required by the nationals of certain countries. (Not for R.S.A. citizens).

As for going to Spain on a visa issued by France, there won't be any problems especially if you visited France already. I will try to find an official source for this, until then check this answer.
