Quickest way to change a shape you already used?

Being a noob I often select the wrong shape and later have to change it.
Isn't there an easy way to switch shapes that are already in your flowchart?

The only way I have been able to do it is by copying the text, then deleting
the shape, dragging the new one then pasting the text in to the new one.
Seems like there should be an easier way?

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanx, Bob.
