how do you rotate a visio drawing in word?

[TJ]

It's easy to insert a visio drawing into Microsfot word, but it doesn't seem
possible to rotate the drawing...?

zoom out to see full page, hold ctrl key down, place cursor via mouse to
corner of drawing page, see cursor pointer change to curved arrow, drag to
rotate page, angle shows in bottom left corner of screen, angle accuracy
controlled as usual.

I figured out you meant that I should do this in Visio (these instructions
don't work in Word 2003, but they do in Visio). However, when you save and
then insert the new rotated diagram into Word, it's not rotated! Word
ignores the rotation.

Thanks for trying, I was very hopeful.

When you have paste your shape as an ole object in word, double click the
image to have the visio toolbar in word, select all the objects ; now you
can see the rotate handle of the selection (like in visio). Just use it.
Hope it can help
