Hi Bill, Thanks for your help. So just to make sure, I'm asking again. Can I use the distance function from a polyline (associated with a route) even if it created a curve line (like in streets)? I will use your advice about the distance>0. Another thing, can you please be more specific how do I save, or using the polyline (associated with a route) ? I mean, I will create a polyline using these two points. How do I add the route element to the polyline? (cause polyline is something like array which holds few points...no?) Thanks a lot!
