Total Length of Pline Dynamic Pointer Input

Total Length of Pline Dynamic Pointer Input

(OP)
I'm trying to find an option on AutoCAD 2008 that shows the TOTAL length of a pline while I'm drawing it. It seems like a simple enough request. I know I can go to properties, or list, but that is after it is already drawn. I'm doing travel distance of certain pathways, and need to know when I hit a certain ditance. Dynamic pointer input only seems to show the current leg of the pline I am drawing. Any info would be very helpful.
