I've been using Corel Draw 8 and Photo Paint 8 for over ten years now, and have many cdr images and Corel Scripts that I still use.
Now I find that on my new Vista PC, Photo Paint 8 seems to work OK, but not Draw 8. I don't imagine that a Draw 8 that works with
Vista is on the horizon.
I see an array of available Corel products that I don't know much about. Could someone be so kind as to tell me which would be
the most economical path for me to get the above capabilities under Vista I've had all these years with earlier Windows versions.
Thanks.

Hello Ray,
we've only tested the latest version of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite (X3) on Vista. We've actually gone through an independent company to certify that X3 is fully compatible with Windows Vista.

As a CorelDRAW 8 user, you are eligible to the upgrade version of CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3. If you buy a box and it has the Vista logo printed on the box, you will have the Vista compatible version of CorelDRAW in the box. If you don't have the Vista logo on the box or it's on a sticker, you will need to download the service pack 2 to get the latest version (use the Program Update feature to make sure you have it).
Hope this helps.

Hi Gerard, I have Coreldraw Graphicssuite 8 bought 10 years ago. I dont think I registered it at the time. I now have changed to Vista and I'll need to upgrade. The Corel website doesnt support registration for draw 8-too old. Is thee another way to register so that I can upgrade to X3 ?
