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.

List of accessible databases on a server

Hi All
I once saw this app that allowed you to pick a SQL server and provided your
signon details; it then displayeda list of DBs on that server which you had
access to with the provided signon.
Does anybody know how they did this? How they got the list of databases off
the server?
ThanksHi
EXEC sp_MSForEachDB "use ? select '?' as dbname, name as username from
sysusers where islogin = 1 and hasdbaccess = 1"
