I was randomly executing sp_spaceused to see what kind of results I would get, when I got this:


database_name database_size unallocated space
Enterprise 1060.63 MB -59708.27 MB


reserved data index_size unused
61710168 KB 60707320 KB 359472 KB 643376 KB

What's up with the minus (-) sign under the 'unallocated space'?

TIA,
JD

Try running sp_spaceused with the @updateusage = TRUE option.
