Hi:
 
I  have about 3140 shape files I would like to
convert to tab..the Universal Tranlator GUI
does not allow me to choose this many files..
 
Anyone have experience converting tons of
shape to tab? What's the best way to go?
 
When I tried doing this at the command line
with imut.exe it generates a 30 MB fme file:

L:\HRAGiS\Tools\UT\imut generate Shape MapInfo r:\mydata\shape myfme.fme
 
this next step takes about 12 hours to read the fme
file and then doesn't get very far doing the actual
conversion before reporting "system low on resources"
and stopping:
 
L:\HRAGIS\Tools\UT\imut myfme.fme --SourceDataset r:\mydata\shape --DestDataset r:\mydata\mitab
 
Anyone have any ideas on how to make this work?
 
Should I generate a huge batch file with these two
imut lines and convert each file separately?
 
Thanks!
