Get space used of all databases

Hello,
I need to get space information of all databases and report it. I create one
cursor that enter in every databases and report space used, but it returns
the following error.
"Server: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 16
Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric."
If i treat my variables like normal text ('') and use the output generated
it works fine.
I send you part of the script and hope that you can help me
declare @.dbsize dec(15,0),
@.dbname sysname,
@.sql nvarchar(850)
declare dbid_cur cursor for
select [name]
from master..sysdatabases
where [name] <> 'tempdb' for read only
open dbid_cur
fetch next from dbid_cur into @.dbname
while @.@.fetch_status = 0
begin
set @.sql = 'use ' + @.dbname + nchar(13) + nchar(10) +
+ 'select ' + @.dbsize + '= cast(sum(convert(dec(15),size))as
varchar(20))'
print @.sql
-- sp_executesql @.sql
fetch next from dbid_cur into @.dbname
end
close dbid_cur
deallocate dbid_cur
Thanks and best regardsHave you looked at sp_helpdb? Does it give you what you want?

EXEC sp_msforeachdb 'USE ?; EXEC sp_spaceused'
(Note that the procedure is unsupported.)
