besides, if the clipart has the .cdr extension then you can probably convert it to something more useful.

Corel Draw only costs around £350!
Corel Paintshop Pro is around £75!

Why not go to www.corel.co.uk and use a free trial to see if you can convert all the clipart into other formats.

CorelDraw 9 OEM version kicks 4 & 5's scrawny butts, & goes for under £20 in a few places...

Check Amazon, ebuyer, ebay...

Not even Irfanview will convert/read .cdr files properly, will only preview them. Adobe Illustrator or other vector graphic package will, but you're better off with CorelDraw. Quite a few people still use 9 rather than 11 or 12, as the newer ones tend to mess with CMYK colours in a dodgy way...

........... isn't Corel 4 for Windows 3.1? Unlikely to run on XP.

There are some .cdr file converters available as free/shareware if you search a bit.
