    Autocad LT 2008 Total inches in drawing?

    I have searched for a method of getting the total measurement of lines in my drawings and found LISP to be the simplest method but also that my LT version does not support LISP. I am trying to find a way to get the total length of the lines in a draft so that I can calculate times based on an IPM (Inches Per Minute) multiplied by the total length of all lines within the drawing.

    I would appreciate ANY help you guys can offer. Thanks in advance.

    ETA - I'm drafting for ESAB machines and using Columbus for the machines just in case anyone here is similarly equipped and knows of a way to access the same information from THAT software rather than AutoCAD itself. Thanks again.
