Previous message (5-15-2024): Hi, all. Sorry for any lack of communication lately. I have been extremely busy running my graphics and car audio shop. The days are long with little rest. I finally had a chance to see some of your emails and will see what I can do about CorelDraw 2024 macros. I haven't decided on an exact direction but may release mini-suites, or just the whole suite again with upgrade pricing. The best deal of course would be the purchase of the GDG Macro Suite.

What is a macro for CorelDraw?
Macros are programs that function inside of CorelDraw 9 and up. VBA macros are written in a Microsoft Programming Language, Visual Basic for Applications. Macros are for automating tasks in CorelDraw. CorelDraw 10 was the first Draw version to support separate gms files or macros. Macros can perform repetitive tasks as well as functions that the program couldn't normally do easily. They can speed up your workflow and make things much easier for you. Click on some of the links on the right to see some of the different macros I created that can help you with your work. |

HAVE FUN!
...Now go check out some of my macros.
