Clone object in Corel Draw to fill a page - coreldraw

I have a 5cmx9cm personal card and I want to fill an A3 page with clones of it.
Is there a simple way to do it than doing it by hand?

There are more ways to achieve this.
If you want to obtain a print or pdf with clones, you may use the printmenu. Go to the printpreview and use the imposition tool, left toolbar, second icon from above. Then put as many items on the page as you want.
The other option is to use the 'transform' menu: Alt+F7.

Removing tabs in tabcontrol and using designated buttons to switch between tabs

I'm currently working on an application for Windows, however, I have one small problem: I can't seem to figure this one out...
Is there a way to remove the tab headers from tab control and designate other buttons to switch between tabs? I'm going for a more modern look and the default tabs in tab control are not at all what I'm interested in.
thanks for your answers on this question!
I've just thought of a different method to keep the clean look of my program without having to get too complicated with code.
For anyone wondering about this, you could set different buttons to hide and show different things, for example:
Under homeBtn you could have code that shows the information shown on the page by default, yet at the same time, you could also hide any information from the previous tab.
Thanks, Laugh
You can easily add buttons setting the property SelectedIndex on the tab control to switch the pages. To hide the tab headers, there are some ideas over here.

Use custom image for button in Ribbon Bar Excel

I have a few custom functions that I'd like to add to my custom tab and group in the ribbon bar. I'd like to use a custom image I created and took a snapshot of (.png). I've seen a few websites that explain how to do so, such as this one,this one, and this one; however, this is way over my head and I'm not even sure where to put the code to insert the file. Can anyone help me understand this better?
Any help is appreciated!
the thing that I was looking for was an XML editor. I found more specific instructions on an Excel Add-in website. Thanks anyways.

openWYSIWYG - dynamic positioning

I am making a webpage that has different areas that can be clicked on to change the contents.
I want to set it up so that when you click on an area, an openWYSIWYG editor appears in the middle of the screen with the rest of the page greyed out.
I have achieved this except for the positioning of the editor. When you click on a section I have a div with 50% opacity cover the page and a textarea appear in the middle. But when I try to attach the editor to the textarea, it loses it's position and falls behind the div not in front of it like the textarea is.
Can anyone suggest a way of centring the openWYSIWYG editor?
You're looking for Modal positioning. Here's one solution:
http://jqueryui.com/demos/dialog/#modal-form
Basically, apply the Jquery Dialog to the div that holds your WYSIWYG. Don't forget a submit button.
Just a quick heads up--I went through quite a bit of headache dealing with WYSIWYG editors for client-facing sites a few months back. It seems that clicking the "paste from WORD" button was a very difficult task to figure out. Word-pasted code can wreak havoc on websites, overrunning text fields in the database. I gave it a try on their demo (which also doesn't support webkit based browsers) and the result wasn't pretty. The only two options I found to solve this were to sanitize code on the back end, or to use CKEditor. I chose the latter because it was so easy. Take a look at CK, it's a great piece of free code.

ReportViewer duplicate toolbar on bottom of report?

Is there a means to duplicate the toolbar so it shows at the top and bottom of the report page? It can be a pain on long reports to scroll up to the top of the page in order to use various functions.
In my searching, I found this link about extending the ReportViewer control. Has anyone worked with it?
It is extremely easy to recreate the toolbar. I would recommend creating a custom toolbar, and placing it twice, where desired.
All the report functions can be called with ReportViewer.Function() calls.
You will need to handle Pagination, printing, export file.
To make this easy on you, here is a codeproject link to get you off your feet.
Custom Toolbar
It is what I used to get started on creating my custom toolbar.
