read each line of a solidworks drawing note and copy into a vb.net list box?

hi all,

Im writing a note program for solidworks where the user selects notes from a database which then numbers, formats and finally inserts  them directly into a SW drawing.

the program works great but now im wanting to add a new feature that will read each line of a note that already exists in a drawing and copies them into a vb.net list box so they can be tweaked.

is it possible to do something like...for each line in selected note.tostring etc....

anyone tried anything like this before?

Here is a screenshot of my program as it stands today

thanks
