ShapeRange.Ungroup method (PowerPoint)
Ungroups any grouped shapes in the specified shape or range of shapes. Disassembles pictures and OLE objects within the specified shape or range of shapes. Returns the ungrouped shapes as a single ShapeRange object.
Syntax
expression.Ungroup
expression A variable that represents a ShapeRange object.
Return value
ShapeRange
Remarks
Because a group of shapes is treated as a single object, grouping and ungrouping shapes changes the number of items in the Shapes collection and changes the index numbers of items that come after the affected items in the collection.
Example
This example ungroups any grouped shapes and disassembles any pictures or OLE objects on myDocument.
Set myDocument = ActivePresentation.Slides(1)
For Each s In myDocument.Shapes
s.Ungroup
Next

If s.Type = msoGroup Then s.Ungroup
Next
