That is gonna be a long process no matter which programme you use! Do NOT, on any occassion use an online converter!.. 1. They will store your files and index them, 2. Trying to recover a file that you have stored with them will more than likely cost you some pounds to retrieve them... 3....The files are their property and they may use them for their own purposes!....not a good idea if they are personal! :wink:
You can also use IrfanView.. a freeware programme available here... http://www.irfanview.com/... or CDR Viewer 3.2.0.0 available here...http://www.softpedia.com/get/Multimedia ... ewer.shtml
Very good programmes .. easy to use and basically does what it says on the tin!... You will still have to do each one separately but you can also batch them but not as automated as it says!

Hi
You might like to try Irfanview which is a free converter for images. I have used it loads of times for batch processing size changes for jpgs etc. You can select a directory or batch select individual items and then do a number of things with the list of images. I haven't converted from cdr files but I'm assured it can be done.
One thing to remember is that it might well offer to download the google toolbar or search installer, but you can manually opt out of these. When you do the batch convert you just create a new directory for the new files to go and run the converter.
