Visio 2002: Best method for flowcharting dependencies?

Hi, all.

One of the applications that I've been working on consists of about 50 "state tables" that are all related to each other. Starting with the first table to be accessed by the program, I am creating a flow chart that shows the dependencies between all of the tables. The problem is that there are a lot of cross-dependencies, and when I have Visio automatically lay out the shapes, many shapes get lost in a massive sea of black lines.

Is there a better diagram shapes set that I should be using for this kind of document? Furthermore, are there specific settings in the "Lay Out Shapes" options panels that would be of assistance?

Thanks in advance,
TEM
