This example changes all corner nodes to smooth nodes in the third shape on the active document. The third shape must be a freeform drawing.

Dim lngLoop As lngLoop 
 
With ActiveDocument.Shapes(3).Nodes 
 For lngLoop = 1 to .Count 
 If .Item(lngLoop).EditingType = msoEditingCorner Then 
 .SetEditingType lngLoop, msoEditingSmooth 
 End If 
 Next lngLoop 
End With
