Determine SQL Server Database Size

Question

SQL Server 2005/2008 Express edition has the limitation of 4 GB per database. As far as I known the database engine considers data only, thus excluding log files, unused spa

Answer 1

According to SQL2000 help, sp_spaceused includes data and indexes.

This script should do:

CREATE TABLE #t (name SYSNAME, rows CHAR(11), reserved VARCHAR(18), 
data VARCHAR(18), index_size VARCHAR(18), unused VARCHAR(18))

EXEC sp_msforeachtable 'INSERT INTO #t EXEC sp_spaceused ''?'''
-- SELECT * FROM #t ORDER BY name
-- SELECT name, CONVERT(INT, SUBSTRING(data, 1, LEN(data)-3)) FROM #t ORDER BY name
SELECT SUM(CONVERT(INT, SUBSTRING(data, 1, LEN(data)-3))) FROM #t
DROP TABLE #t
