Illustrator, measure the length of a curve?

Hi everybody,

On illustrator, I would like to know if it is possible to measure the length of a curve from a point A to a point B. If so, how should one do?

Thanks for your help

Thank you for your answer Doug.

Is it possible to have this length in cm for exemple?

Yes, if you set your 'General' units to cm under Preferences > Units
