Hi All
am using the Universal Translator from 4.5.2 (NT 4.0 sp5, PII 333) to
translate shape files (the shape file has a few thousand points in it)
into native MapInfo. the files were built into points in ArcView from
text files using the 'Create Event Layer' command and then saved as
shape files straight from ArcView.
Every time i run the UT it crashes out on the files (Dr. Watson
Message). below is an example of the output in the mutlog file.
Universal Translator (19971015 - Build 231h)
Opened Shape File D:\Dev\Data\temp\sxtp2r30.shp for input
Unable to generate mapping file.
interestingly enough I've tried it the other way - using "create points"
in MI on the text files and then trying to translate them to Shape via
the UT - again a crash with a dr watson message.
i recently had a trial version of FME 300 on my machine and i wondered
if that might have caused a prob but i've uninstalled MI & FME and then
put MI back on.
am extremely puzzled !!!
TIA
Jon
