estimate inductance of PCB trace?

Hello, 

Does PCB Designer have the ability to calculate/estimate inductance of a trace / traces?

I am trying to implement a capacitor decoupling network for an IC. I can choose the capacitor value, but the inductance is determined by the PCB trace, via structure, stackup thickness, etc. If PCB Designer can estimate the inductance of the traces between IC and capacitor, then I can calculate the resonance frequency, and make it the same as the clock frequency.

Thanks,

    I don't see it, what license do I need to get?
