WMF or EMF work fine. You can hard-import these, import by reference, or embed 
them as OLE objects. If you are confident nobody is going to muck about with 
your source, importation by reference is easiest, because you can update more 
or 
less on the fly from Visio. You just need to remember to save the chart as 
(wmf/emf) when you're done with your session. be careful not to leave any 
object 
in the image selected, or you'll end up saving just that object, which can make 
for some embarrassment, to be sure.

If you are concerned about poor source discipline, the best method may be to 
build your flowcharts directly in Frame, using its graphical features. It all 
depends on your work environment. There used to be a way to backdoor save and 
import from vsd into Frame, but MSFT plugged that hole, so you'd likely be 
stuck 
with redrawing if you opt to go this route.

I've found OLE implementation to be pretty spotty, but my experience is getting 
a little elderly, and perhaps they've fixed things in recent revs.
