Sub Userproc;
Var
    mb: IMetabase;
    Wsp: IWxWorkspace;
    Shape: IWxShape;
Begin
    // Get workspace
    mb := MetabaseClass.Active;
    wsp := mb.ItemById("WSP").Edit As IWxWorkspace;
    // Get the first shape on workspace
    Shape := Wsp.Shapes.Item(0);
    // Change shape type
    Wsp.Replace(Shape, WxFigureType.Ellipse);
    // Save changes
    (Wsp As IMetabaseObject).Save;
End Sub Userproc;

After executing the example the first workspace shape type is changed.
