Grip Help w/Notes

Grip Help w/Notes

Grip Help w/Notes

(OP)
Hello...
   I've stumbled into a little problem with my routine and have hit a wall in trying to come up with a resolution.  I'm writing a routine to extract all notes and labels from a drawing and it's working fine with one exception.  All notes with two or more lines are not being fully read, only the first line of the note is picked up.  Anyone have any ideas?  I've browsed the online docs and various boards without success.  A nudge in the right direction would be most appreciated, and thanks in advance.

Have you tired reading the note into an array to get the multiple lines?

"Wildfires are dangerous, hard to control, and economically catastrophic."
"Fixed in the next release" should replace "Product First" as the PTC slogan.

Looslib,
   Thanky sir... I don't know how I missed it but I obviously did.  Have a shiny new star on me for pointing out the error of my ways.  My routine is working as designed, and now I'm just trying to incorporate all the "tweaks" that the checkers have thought of to add.
Thanks again...
SS
