Hi!

Recently a problem was driving me nearly nuts. I wanted to create some
graphics in CorelDraw 3.0 and import it into Word 6.0a. It just didn't
work.

The graphics consisted of an extrusion group and 4 text objects (I don't
know the English description for it, it's the one you create in CD3 by
dragging the mouse instead of just clicking). I tried to include it as
*.CDR and as *.WMF. Both wouldn't work. The text was not scaled and
positioned correctly and the whole picture looked totally messed up.

Another problem: I drew some circles in CD3, grouped some of them into
some 4-5 groups (to represent the Bohr atomic model), repositioned the
groups and everything looked fine in CD3. I loaded the picture as *.WMF
in Word and one group was not where it should have been. It was just
positioned somewhere else. It was OK when I included it as *.CDR.

Anyone encountered these effecte before? Any workarounds?
Please reply by email as well, since my newsreader has the unpleasant
habit of deleting many messages before I can read them when I return to
work after the weekend on Wednesday.

Thanks a lot,
Wolfgang Hutter <><
