If I have understood the problem correctly the solution is to
1) open the source tab in MapInfo.
2) File>Save Copy As   to save the source into the Latlong Tab.  The Dialog to
"save copy as" has a projection button in the bottom right corner to set the
projection of the new layer.
3) Export the Latlong TAB to MIF & MID. (Table>export).  The MIF file is a text
file and has all the coordinates for the objects.

Subject: MI - Convert UTM table to L/L table


I have a table populated with UTM metric coordinates.  While this is
fine for the purpose of mapping the data I would like to use MI to
convert the entire table to L/L so I can save it out in an ASCII
format.  I suspect there is a MapBasic routine but have been unable to
find one.  Any help would be appreciated.
