My data file is 140MB Space used 133MB
My log file is 2611MB Space used 178MB

Can anyone tell me how to make my logfile smaller? I Shrunk the database but de filesize of the logfile still is 2611MB.

Thanks in advance,
Jeroen

Look at "Shrinking the Transaction Log" in BOL. Basically, after you shrink your database you need to SHRINKFILE the logfile.
