Is there a single command that I could execute in T-SQL that would list all tables and the file they "lived" in for a given database? If not, what would you recommend to produce such an output?
Thanks for the help...

Is this what you're looking for ?

this query uses native sqlserver systemtables .

SELECT FG.groupid AS GroupID

, SUBSTRING(FG.groupname,1,30) AS FilegroupName

, SUBSTRING(O.name,1,30) AS ObjectName

, ix.indid, ix.name as indexname

, F.filename as FileNames

FROM sysobjects O

INNER JOIN sysindexes IX

ON O.id = IX.id

INNER JOIN sysfilegroups FG

ON IX.groupid = FG.groupid

INNER JOIN sysfiles F

on F.groupid = FG.groupid

WHERE O.xtype = 'U'

ORDER BY FG.groupname, O.ObjectName

Very nice alzdba! It's exactly what I needed. Thanks for coming through on such short notice... I was really in a crunch and you've just made it possible for me to complete under the wire.

Keep in mind filegroup-files are balanced within a group, so your maxcapacity is the size of the smallest file * the number of files in the filegroup.
