Does anyone know if it is possible to modify the text within a
SmartArt object through the use of the Office object model?
No, it isn't possible. That part of the object model is read-only.
You can read the text from an inline object (modifying the index numbers as
necessary) with
ActiveDocument.InlineShapes(1).GroupItems(1).TextFrame2.TextRange.Text
but trying to assign a string to that property fails.
Also, I get various bogus-looking errors if the SmartArt's text wrapping is
anything other than inline and I use the Shapes collection in a similar
statement to try to get the text.
