[edit] Disambiguation
Some format lists claim there is a "BMF" format associated with Corel Flow. It's not clear if this is a reference to the Corel Gallery clipart format, or to the IMSI FloorPlan 3D format, or just an error, or what.
[edit] File Format
CorelFlow files have the extension .CFL and use the OLE container format.
- Version 1 released around 1989
- Version 2 released around 1994
- Version 3 released around 1996
[edit] File Identification
.CFL files created by version 2 & 3 have different internal structure which includes info on versions.
