How do you flip (mirror) a drawing/page of a flowchart?

I have tried selecting all shapes and used the shapes-flip-function of
visio 2003.
And I tried visio 2010-beta: position-orient shapes-rotate diagram-flip
horizontal/vertical function.
Both without success as all connectors of the shapes get redrawn and
therefore messed up!
Grouping all shapes before flipping doesnt work either.

Any ideas what to do? I have many flowcharts to transform so redrawing them
is not an option for me..

Selecting all the shapes (Control-A) then menu Shape -> Rotate or Flip -> Flip Horizontal
should work but maybe the connectors will get tangled in very complicated diagrams. I've
just tried this with a simple diagram of 10 shapes and all seems well.
