The Horster Tools plugin has a ReadTxt component that reads all Rhino text objects to strings (you get their coordinates as well)

Alternatively you can create a scripting component to read the text property from the refferenced GUID:

refference the GUID the same way you refference geometry, put this code inside the VB.net component:

Dim obj As Rhino.DocObjects.TextObject
obj = Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.Objects.Find(x)
A = obj.DisplayText

Hi,

How to use this script in C#?

Dim obj As Rhino.DocObjects.TextObject
obj = Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.Objects.Find(x)
A = obj.DisplayText

Thanks,

Petras

private void RunScript(Guid x, ref object A)
{
Rhino.DocObjects.TextObject obj = default(Rhino.DocObjects.TextObject);
obj = (Rhino.DocObjects.TextObject) Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.Objects.Find(x);
A = obj.DisplayText;
}

Dim obj As Rhino.DocObjects.TextObject
obj = DirectCast(Rhino.RhinoDoc.ActiveDoc.Objects.Find(x), Rhino.DocObjects.TextObject)
A = obj.DisplayText
