Balloon each view in a drawing individually

I would like to add balloons to each view in my drawing separately. First off, are the dimensions for a particular view (base view, drawing view, detailed view, etc.) linked to the view itself?

If so, I was trying to use
For Each theView As Drawings.DraftingView In workPart.DraftingViews

However, the ballooning doesn't seem to happen sequentially by the views.

If we are talking about drafting dimensions (those you create in the drafting application) as opposed to PMI dimensions; then no, the dimensions are not directly linked to the drafting view itself. The dimensions are (usually) associated to geometry; you might be able to work backward by querying the dimension's associativities to see which drafting view(s) it references but I know of no drafting view property or method that will return dimensions used by the view (or rather dimensions that make use of that view).
