Remarks

The RemoveMember method removes from the container the shapes specified in the ObjectToRemove parameter.

If the container is a list, Microsoft Visio removes the shapes specified in ObjectToRemove both from the list (if it is a list member) and from the list container.

If the ContainerProperties.LockMembership property is True, Visio returns a Disabled error.

If ObjectToRemove does not contain top-level shapes on the page, Visio returns an Invalid Parameter error. However, if ObjectToRemove is not a container member, Visio does not return an error.
