You need to convert the file into mapinfo format. If you purchase worldreg
then that will allow you to do it in batch. I also remember someone posting
the location of a free converter. If you check the archives you should be
able to track it down.

Subject: MI problems with geo-referenced Mr Sid files
I recently purchased a series of orthophotos in Mr SID format. Accompaning
each .sid file was a .sdw Sid World File which is a geographic referencing
file.
When i open up a .SID file MapInfo acts as though the file is not
geo-referenced and gives me the Display or Register? option. Do i need to
convert the SDW file? Any ideas would be appreciated.
