Wrap round
You can add text to a text box from the outset; to add text to an AutoShape,
right-click and choose "Add Text." But the included text box will always be rectangular. If by "wrap round the inside" you are implying anything other than straightforward left-to-right text that wraps at the right margin, then you will be disappointed. -- Suzanne S.

Wrap round
Are you asking how to get text into a graphic shape? If so, right-
click after drawing the shape and choose Add Text. The box inside the shape will still be rectangular (even in a circle). If you're asking about getting other text to wrap around a shape, that's done with the Text Wrapping command (on the Picture toolbar or the Format Ribbon in 07) and it includes a Wrap Points option that you can use to build your own "shape" for the flow.
