CorelDRAW X5 :: Delete Path When Using Blend Tool?

I'm learning to use Coreldraw for artistic metal cutting using a plasma cutter, so the file itself is important and not just what appears on the screen (or what prints out).

I've used the blend tool to draw some circles along a wavy path. I want the circles but I don't want the path. I remove the outline and the path dissappears on the screen but it's still in the file and when I export as a dxf file there is the path cutting right through the circles.

If I use Detach from Path then the circles simple come of my wavy path and end up in a straight line.

Are there any other techniques to give the same result but one where I can keep the circles/objects in their locations while removing the path at file level.

I know of a plugin available for Coreldraw that can take a bunch of dissimilar objects and place them on a path but at this point don't know if it can do what I need and delete the path afterwards.

Or is there any way I can copy the circles without copying the path.
