Answer
Mark,

There is a way to do this, but it can be a little cumbersome
the first time you use it.

Basically, you have to use the PhotoPaint "Batch process.."
feature.  It allows you to select a bunch of files, and then
apply one or more scripts to each image, and then save.
It works really well, as long as you installed PhotoPaint
with the ability to record scripts.  (That is the default,
so you probably have it.)  

Recording scripts is a little tricky -- you need to use the
"Recorder" docker.  Pick Window->Dockers->Recorder to bring
up the docker, then click on the record button to record a
new script.  Then you need to save the script as a .csc file.

After that, choose File->Batch process.. to set up batch
processing.

You can see more info here:

and in the Corel PhotoPaint help.


Good luck...
