You can break apart the bevel and then turn your beveled bitmap into a monochrome bitmap and change its color that way, if that is what your talking about.

Using the object manager select the text right click and select break bevel group apart. I must say tho as much as I love Corel the bevel function is well crap!!!  It is a memory hog and the results are nasty with very little control, if I ever need to do something like a bevel I go right to illy every time.
