Travis,
Go to the drop down menu Map and then select Options at the
bottom of the menu...Change the Area Units to Square Miles and
select OK.
Now in your Mapper select the polygon in question, then click on
the drop down menu Edit and then Get Info, again at the bottom of
the menu...There's your answer, hope that helps...

How would one go about calculating the total area, sq. mi, a polygon
represents. I have dug in the help file looking at the area function with
little success.
