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 Ray,
If any I would suggest you buy a new CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3. With this you will get so much for the money, especially if upgrading from version 8. There are so many new good things in the X3 version that you will probably get very inspired to do more work. And as Gérard from Corel itself said, you are eligible to upgrade to CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3.And quoting your question: the most economical path?CorelDRAW Graphics Suite X3.
