Michael,
This is a good work-around, but I do need it to work for complex figures.
I did find the Contour feature that does do the job!!
Thank you.

Mr. Brewer,
Thank you for the additional information. It looks like the Interactive Contour flyout comes up when I select Effects/Contour in CorelDraw12. I knew Corel had to have this function.
Thank you again.

Greg,
Not trying to be a smart aleck, but that's the regular Contour; it will most often do the job and is less "abstract" than the Interactive Contour tool.
You'll have to fiddle with the Interactive Contour tool (found in the Interactive Tool flyout just below the Artistic Text Tool), but after you get the feel of it, you'll find it handles many contour requirements quicker.

Mr. Brewer,
Ah, I see it know. I finally found the correct item to select. I'll play with it some more and practice using it to adjust cuts slightly for wood inlay.
I need to attend a CorelDraw class to get up to speed with the newer version. The last I had was version 8 and before that 4, so there's something about me progressing in jumps!
Take care.
