measure an spline's length

Hi guys!
Well, the title says pretty much what I need.

I would like to know the lenght of a given spline line, no matter if it is stright or round, opened or closed...

I've been user or Autocad for several years and I'm used to draw a spline line or a polyline and use the command _list to know the total lenght of the shape.

Does anynody know how can I do this in max? perhaps using the listener with some code like $myspline.lenght or something? maxscript help file is a crap!

Thanks in advance. By the way, I use max8 (just in case...)

Hi!
I also have been trying to do this and I had searched a lot about this issue but could not find anything, So what I do is i export my Atuocad files to 3dsmax and work on it.. ;)
