Get started with Microsoft SharePoint


CorelDRAW gives you direct access to your organization’s Microsoft SharePoint document management system (DMS).

*

The Document Management feature is available only if your organization has licensed CorelSure Maintenance.

To use your organization’s DMS with CorelDRAW, you must log in to SharePoint by using your SharePoint credentials, not your Corel.com account credentials.

Saving documents to a document library

You can share CorelDRAW (CDR) documents with others by saving them to your organization’s document library. After you save a document to the document library, others can view the document, or check it out, provided they have the permission to do so.

Using the working folder

By default, CorelDRAW places a folder called "Working Files" in My Documents, so the location of the default working folder is as follows:
Users\<Your name>\Documents\Working Files

The file you check out is copied to the working folder, and you can modify the file in CorelDRAW from that location. When you are ready to check in the changes, the file is copied from the working folder back into the SharePoint document library. For information about checking out files, see Check documents in and out of a document library.

You can change the working folder, although you should never need to do so.

*

You must check in all checked-out files before changing the working folder. If you change the working folder while files are checked out; you will not be able check them in from within CorelDRAW.
