Object origin

I have a problem with resetting the cursor origin in my new Coreldraw 17 workspace. I drag the 0,0 co-ordinate to where I want the origin so I can scale measurements but the origin stays at -213, -85 or similar.

I tried going into Free Transform but had no success. The end result is I have gone back to using my Corel X8 that works perfectly.

I have even been to the Corel Support but I was told twice to reload the software and it didn't help
