Yes this is very easy, we do it all the time. You need a picture box with the scale width and height set to cover your area.
When the user draws the line you need to track to coordinates and add it to a local array. When the user clicks on a "pipeline" you trap the mouse coordinates and then use the local array to determine which segment he has clicked next to. Depending on what it is e.g. pipeline, valve, pig trap etc you can load the appropriate form and allow him to enter the relevant info.
Hope this helps.
