Are you asking about the code, ignoring the disabled lines or just the ones that are currently set to be active?

The active code lines will only work on the FIRST shape in the document. If you had a shape selected which isn't the first shape then it will be ignored. Is that what you wanted to happen?

Let's look at this example if you re-enabled the loop. Say you have one shape in the document and it is a group of three shapes. Your loop starts and it only has one shape to work on. As it looks at the first (grouped) shape, it decides to ungroup the shape (which now becomes three shapes). Then the loop ends because when it started it was told to only work on one shape.

So the questions are:
Do you want the macro to work on all shapes in the document, on one selected shape only, or on every selected shape?
If a shape is ungrouped, do you want its constituent parts to be set to textwrap square?
If a grouped shape is ungrouped and one of the new parts is also a group, do you also want that ungrouped (until there are no more grouped elements)?
