I use Corel Draw 10. In my opinion, its not broke, so it doesn't need to be replaced. My wife got a
laptop with Windows 7 on it and have nothing but trouble ever since ! Microsoft thinks its Corel's problem.
When we type text in specific font, it uses the font we chose. Ok to see it in different font, we duplicate the text and then try to change the font, only 2 fonts are shown now, neither of which I wanted.
So to see it in a different font, we have to re type it in a different font.
I make stickers at a Flea Market here in Mobile, Alabama and my cuttng program, Mikaki Fine Cut 1.0
only works with Corel 9 or Corel 10.
Windows 7 is supposedly set us use it like windows was in XP mode, but does'nt work that way.
Andrew is correct, windows 7 improved compatibility over vista in its native environment, so, vista will be even more problematic.
However, windows 7 supports a virtual environment that windows xp runs in, Microsoft did this specifically for migrating.
This does require windows 7 pro or higher, and a pc that will run a virtual environment.
Best part, it’s free, see here.

Actually it is FREE with pro or higher.
As ruckstande said, your version is broke on modern operating systems.
Virtual xp mode is for easing the migration process, and should be treated as such.
You should upgrade your cutter software and CorelDraw when this becomes possible for you.
Best of luck
