Hi, I'm brand new to Visio. I've got Visio 2002.

I'm attempting to create some sort of grouping that will regulate and update the way shapes are presented.

For instance, I wish to assign several shapes to a "group" called "Feature Class". If I change the fill color on one of these shapes from blue to red, I want the fill color for all shapes in the "group" to change from blue to red.

I want to be able to do the same thing when I change text formatting (I want the textual formatting to change, but not the textual contents).

I'm assuming this is possible and probably easy. I tried Layers and looked around on the ShapeSheets, but the answer is not apparent.

Thanks in advance,
Herb
