I have a Visio 2007 flowchart, several pages long, and I need to link from several of the pages to a single page. I have the off-page reference set up from Page 1 to Page 7 (page 7 shows the final flow at the end of the process).  However, I cannot figure out how to link also from pages 3 and 4 to that same off-page reference that is on Page 7.

The off-page reference shapes invoke an addon that controls the shapes and synchronises the text within the shapes. However, this addon is only designed to work with the two shapes that get put on the pages.
If you want more shapes to link to a page then that is quite easy. Any shape can contain hyperlinks (menu Insert -> Hyperlink) that can link to any page (or other things).

Just copy the hyperlink shape and paste it on the other pages.

In a related post, http://visguy.com/vgforum/index.php?topic=5518.msg22080#msg22080, there is discussion regarding how to make the hyperlink display the "target" information.
