I am wondering if anyone has any experience in creating a new control based on a WPF text box that could support syntax highlighting, line numbers, etc.
Any links or advice on how i could begin creating something like this would be very helpful.

Hey there. I don't have any personal experience implementing something like you're suggesting, but I found a couple of links that might help you out.
- Derived rich text box with syntax highlighting
- SharpDevelop (it's open source and you can probably grab some insights from their source code for syntax highlighting)
- Syntax highlighting in a Coacoa app (maybe glean some approaches from this)

i found the AvalonEdit control from the SharpDevelop 4 alpha works great, was able to add it to my project and had it up and running in minutes. Thanks for the suggestion!
