Using VB (or maybe VBA), how do I retrieve the notes for each slide in a
PowerPoint presentation?
Will it be in a .rtf format to preserve formatting?

Export the notes text of a presentation

No, just plain text. But you might be able adapt the code sample in the link
to find each notes text placeholder and copy/paste it into Word.

That'd retain the formatting.

If you need RTF as the final result, you can save as that from Word.

Or paste the notes into the body placeholders of a dummy presentation and
then save the presentation as outline.

I can retrieve the text, but I also need to retrieve the formatting. Any
clue? There must be a table (array) that defines text ranges with
formatting (bold, italic, font, size, etc.) that corresponds to the text.

Charlie,
You need to access the Runs method. To see an example of it's use:
Find and replace one color with another on fills, text and borders
