G'day all

I have just downloaded a map of the Geology of the Conterminous United States at 
1:2,500,000 Scale from http://pubs.usgs.gov/dds/dds11/index.html and I am trying to 
get it into MapInfo.

The map came as the files shown below. I can convert the .e00 files into .tab files 
using the Universal Translator toll, but does anyone know what the .gra and .apr files 
are? and how do I get them into Mapinfo?

The kbge.eps file is the main geology map and I assumed that once I converted the .e00 
files, there should have been some .tab file related to the .eps file that would allow 
me to directly open it georeferenced into MapInfo. However, this is not the case. How 
do I get this eps file to open in MapInfo? The prj.e00 file has the following 
information;

EXP  0 /SCRATCH_AREA2/KBEXPORT/ALB2GEO.PRJ.E00
