Remarks

Use the TextFrame property to return the TextFrame object for a shape. The TextRange property returns a Range object that represents the range of text inside the specified text frame.

Note Some shapes don't support attached text (lines, freeforms, pictures, and OLE objects, for example). If you attempt to return or set properties that control text in a text frame for those objects, an error occurs.

Use the HasText property to determine whether the text frame contains text.

Text frames can be linked together so that the text flows from the text frame of one shape into the text frame of another shape. Use the Next and Previous properties to link text frames.

Use the ContainingRange property to return a Range object that represents the entire story that flows between linked text frames.
