List Table sizes in db by mb?

Is there a way to see the size in mb of each table in a db?
I am trying to troubleshoot a problem I am seeing. I have 2 dbs with the
same tables and very similar data in the tables, yet when I right click on
the db in SQL enterprise manager and select properties the total db mb on 1
is 45 times bigger in mb than the 2nd.
Thx,

I keep investigating and found that the Transaction log file is the file
that is huge. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? I do
not need to roll back any data. It is all test data so far.
