Area block that updates...

I am working on a subdivision plan and trying to layout lots.  Is there someway I could have the area of the four property display on the screen and if I dragged one properly line the area would update?  I am trying to create 9,000 sf lots and instead of having to check the properties of each lot it would be great if the area could be labelled on the screen and update when I move the propertly lines.  Thanks.

You can insert field with area for closed polyline (Insert -> Field -> Object)

You can kind of do what you want by inserting fields into each lot that are linked to the area. They will not change as you are dragging the lot lines but when you move it you can do a REGEN and it will show the new areas.
