How to know the size of a database

Hi all,<br /><br />A branch of my company sent a backup file of a database to me. Before restoring, I want to know the real size of this database if I restore this backup file. Can you tell me how to do.<br /><br />Thanks! [<img src=’/community/emoticons/emotion-1.gif’ alt=’:)‘ />]
restore filelistonly from DISK='<filename>’ is your friend in this case Cheers
