How do I create partial black and white photos in Corel 12... New to the program!
You can play with Clip Masks for the most flexibility, but I usually just do this;
1. Duplicate the background to a new object, Ctrl+D.
2. Desaturate that new object.
3. Erase through the top object, revealing the original colored background below.

Duplicate Background. Ctrl-D
Create a Desaturate Lens. Object/Create/New Lens. Select desaturate from the list.
Activate duplicated object/layer. Click on object docker
Activate Channel Mixer. Adjust/Channel Mixer. Mix channel until you obtain a good grayscale image.
Combine lens object/layer with duplicated object layer. Select both of them with the Shift key holded, and Ctrl-Alt-Down Arrow, or Menu/Object/Combine/Combine Objects Together.
Create a Clip Mask. Object Docker right click object and select Clip Mask/Show All or Menu/Object/ClipMask/Create/To Show All.
Activate Airbrush and paint away the areas you want to discard, or restore changing from black to white the brush color.
Combine Clip Mask when satisfied.
