Visio locks up when I'm using a geographic map shape

I'm trying to create a large (34" x 44") map of Alaska. I've downloaded and
saved the geographic map shape of Alaska that you can get from Visio. I can
drag it over to the new page and resize it with no problem, I can even flip
it, move it, or select it with no slow down or problems. When I click on the
rectangle tool (or any of the other shape tools), Visio locks up. It doesn't
matter if I have the shape of Alaska selected or not. The only way I can get
around this is to create a blank page, fill it with the map, then save it as
a JPG then import that JPG into another document. However, when I do this I
loose the abillity to really modify the shape.

I've downloaded several other geographic maps and they all work fine. It
seems to be just the Alaska map! I've tried it with several different
documents with no problems. Any ideas?
