expression.ConvertToFrame
expression Required. An expression that returns a Shape or ShapeRange object.
Remarks
Shapes that don't support attached text cannot be converted to frames. For pictures, OLE objects, and ActiveX controls, use the ConvertToInlineShape method.
If you use this method on a ShapeRange object that contains more than one shape, an error occurs.
In Word 97 and later, frames have been replaced by text boxes.
Example
This example creates a text box using the selected text, and then it converts the text box to a frame.
If Selection.Type = wdSelectionNormal Then
Selection.CreateTextbox
Selection.ShapeRange.ConvertToFrame
End If
