Dave, you just load the original program several times, setting up separate names for each, ie- RD1, RD2, then you can open several at a time. You can then set up shortcuts to each to make then easier to open. This is really slick with Win7, I will have to research it in Win 10, which I am still trying to get used to.

Gene,

LOL, Ya gotta love going back to the old DOS fixes in the modern era. I'm afraid I'm old enough to remember when DOS 2.0 came out. I'll install a few extra copies of RDWorks when I get a chance. I did save the icons, and now they make sense.

FYI, I love the export macro. No saving and then re-opening. I always seemed to loose something, or it wold automatically close something that I wanted left open when I did that. The export is direct. Only thing I have noticed that doesn't export properly from Corel are dashed lines and groups. There may be a few other little things, but those stick out right now.

I did go back and download the updated manual, and it explains things MUCH better than the ChiEnglish one.

XML files are encoded in plaintext, so you can open them in any text editor and be able to clearly read it. Right-click the XML file and select "Open With." This will display a list of programs to open the file in. Select "Notepad" (Windows)

You can install it in Corel Draw as a colour palette, and in Adobe Illustrator too I think.
