Get distance in Web Viewer in Google Maps

Featured Replies

I just tried my first insert of a google map, based on our parents address (we are a school). No other experience using this. Is there an easy way for me to not only display the map of the parent address, but also calculate and indicate the distance between the parent address and school address? (Just the mileage, not two points on the map). Thanks
