Thank you for the reply, Dan, a reply is appreciated.
I must write that I am surprised by this response - your website seems to be asking for help at all levels. I am not quite convinced that months of work is needed (mainly because corelDRAW version 11 works); but maybe you know something I do not - the main point of my posting, of course. Largely, I was asking for policy information; i.e., *what* to do, not *how* to do it, which I feel I can handle.
Good Luck with the project.
