Hi sakul,

There is no feature in Visio to do this, but there are utilities available.

Try:

Install and select 'Shape substitute' from the menu.

Or:

Thanks Chris!
I've just released a new version of the utilities. In the shape substitute you can now make the dialog form transparent so when doing multiple substitutes and you are responding yes/no to each one it is now easier to see whch shape is selected.

I've also added text export from multiple documents, even from a selection of files so you can now export all the text from hundreds or even thousands of Visio documents.
