It probably has occurred to a lot of you that what you will have to do is reverse engineer proprietary files to get where you want to go. Better read the EULA before proceeding too far with this - at least on a public forum. I'm not saying that deveopers don't reverse engineer stuff but . . . The only way to get the code legally would be to convince Corel that it would be in their best interest to make the code necessary to make conversion utilities publically available. try working on it from that angle. -TJ
