Sachin,
Read the API Wizard under User's Guide->Drawings->Detail Items. There you
will find all of the APIs that are used to create detail entities (notes).
If I wanted to find the view to which a note was attached I would use the
following procedure:

Collect the drawing notes ProDrawingDtlnotesCollect().
Iterate through each drawing note with a for loop.
Get the note data ProDtlnoteDataGet()
Get the note data attachment ProDtlnotedataAttachmentGet().
Get all of the attachment data ProDtlattachGet(). Determine the
attachment type. Only the PRO_DTLATTACHTYPE_FREE attachment type will
have a reference to a drawing view. If the attachment type is correct
then the 'view' output argument will be valid.
Get the name of the view ProDrawingViewNameGet().
