How to get polygon distance from a route?

[المشرف العام]

I need to calculate the location of polygons along the route in ArcGIS (ArcInfo) 9 or 10. What I have already found out is only the calculation of the start and end of the intersection of a polygon with the route. But in my case I need to attribute all the polygons along the route, many of them do not intersect the route at all. The route is one and continuous.

I would need (at best) to get the following values:

• Route measure of the polygon starting (aside from the route, by the shortest perpendicular line)
• Route measure of the polygon ending (same)
• Distance of the nearest polygon edge from a route (given that the polygon does not intersect the route)
• Distance of the farthest polygon edge from a route
• Measures to be specified left or right side from the route (as the route measures increase) - probably +/- values

This probably has to do with VBA or something - if so, please paste the code since I'n not familiar with scripting, unfortunately. I bet the problem is common (locating natural hazard sites along a road, for example), but googling and search in ArcGIS help didn't gave me any result. Also, there may be extensions doing that, but my search in ArcScripts didn't yield.
