Database size entry?

Which system table is the currently defined size (hopefully the total size)
of the data and log devices found?
I'm assuming in master somewhere? sysobjects? I just can't find it...
thanksDave,
Check out:
sysfiles

Its been taken from sysfiles table. You could just run a prfiler and get the
query. See the query I get for Master database property.
SELECT o.fileid, o.name, o.filename, o.groupid, o.size, o.maxsize, o.growth,
o.status FROM dbo.sysfiles o WHERE o.groupid = (SELECT u.groupid FROM
dbo.sysfilegroups u WHERE u.groupname = N'PRIMARY') and (o.status & 0x40) =
0
go
SELECT fileid, name, filename, size, growth, status, maxsize FROM
dbo.sysfiles WHERE (status & 0x40) <> 0
Thanks
