2. What is the current size of the tables (used)?
Good article Thank you :)
Simple & sweet!
great stuff…thanks
i am the beginner.. so may i know what is byte_length…
select a.name,Sum(b.[max_length]) from sys.objects a INNER JOIN
sys.columns b ON a.object_id=b.object_id Where type = ‘u’ Group by a.name
select a.name,Sum(b.[max_length]) from sys.objects a INNER JOIN
sys.columns b ON a.object_id=b.object_id Where type = ‘u’ Group by a.name
very helping article thanks buddy
Hi Pinal,
My table structure is like this.
using with above script am getting the Max_Length as “3”
Column_name Type Computed Length
ID int no 4
SPName varchar no -1
But varchar(max) length is 8000bytes …
How can we get exact lenght. Correct me if am wrong…

Nice thank you for such a nice information
Nice piece of information. As i am beginner as a DBA . I have started referring all your blogs from the beginning.
Select ISNULL(t.name,’AllTables’)[TableName],Sum(C.max_length)[TableSize]
from sys.tables T
join sys.columns C on t.object_id=C.object_id
Group by rollup (t.name)
Select ISNULL(t.name,’AllTables’)[TableName],Sum(C.max_length)[TableSize]
from sys.tables T
join sys.columns C on t.object_id=C.object_id
Group by Grouping Sets (t.name)
—-for DBs having compatablilty Mode less than 100 ;)
Good One.
