Database growing unexpectedly

Hi all,
Running sql2000 ee SP4 on win2003.
I have a small database which havent been inserted/updated since it was
created 6 months ago. No DDL changes. This database was about 1,5 Mb for
the first months, but have started to grow. The size is now 30 Mb and it
is growing with about 2 Mb a month. It is set to autogrow with 10%.
Can someone explain this growth?

Hi,
seems the first output from
USE MyDb; EXEC sp_MSforeachtable 'EXEC sp_spaceused [?]'
was missing some tables...
I ran UpdateUsage and the sp_spaceused again and found the reason for the
growth.
Case closed :-)
Thanks,sql
