Subject: [gislist] ESRI shape to MapInfo TAB file convertor
Date:  06/01/2006 06:50:01 AM
From:  Selvan



Hi Folks..

One more interesting Question to discuss on this intelligent list.

I am basically a MapInfo user, when i create polygons with a lenghty codes
as the attributes.During the migration process
using Autocad map (the latest version to mention).I use map export along the
attributes and other stuff into Esri shape.

When i tend to translate the ESRI shape to MapInfo TAB file..I get only the
attribute data in my table..i can see any
graphics at all..i am following all the process such as assigning projection
& other stuffs.

I also think it could be due to lenghty code attribute (Character About
254).As anyone come across such problem.
It works perfect for 90% of the cases i do..i am really unsure what could be
the reason for this back logg?

Can anyone suggest me any free download convertor that can convert ESRI
shapes file to MapInfo TAB file, where in i get both graphics and
attributes.

Advance thanks for all Gigantic GIS experts who are going to remove me out
of this problem

Thanks & Regds
