hey, can anyone tell me if its possible to have a note block or system, so that when adding notes to elevations sections, it  can automatically happen, i.e, if you select a wall to note, it automatically comes up with your pre determined text for that item etc.

help would be appreciated thankyou

Check into using Revit's 'Keynote' capability.

 See the Revit help file for more information. [Revit 9.0/9.1]

• Element. A keynote can be applied to an entire element such as a wall, detail component, or door.
• Material. A keynote can be assigned to a material that has been painted on a surface and to those assigned to the component layers of an element. Keynotes are not supported for the insulation drafting command or the detail components line and filled region.
• User. This option provides a way to use commonly used notes or phrases to address documentation issues. These additional user notes must be added to the provided keynote text files or included in one you create
