Creo VB API -- Helped needed on annotation

Hi Folks,

I have created a windows application using vb.net.

I need a program to read the value of a text note, When i click on a button it should allow me to select annotate on drawing page and then it should capture the text and place it on textbox1.

Kindly help me, if anyone have the vb.net script pls share it.

Thanks,

Pavithra

Were you able to solve it? I want to get all notes in a drawing and print the text to a multiline textbox

For i = 0 To linsText.Count - 1
For j = 0 To linsText.Item(i).Texts.Count - 1

Next

TextBox1.Text = strText.Trim

asyncConnection.Disconnect(1000)
Catch ex As Exception
