Hi Scott Nothing wrong. Shape as a format only knows points, polylines and areas (it is a pretty limited format, i.e. it uses very old fashion dBase as database format and all columns names must be less then 10 characters all uppercase ... imagine; MapInfo uses dBase too but at least bit in a smarter way). Shape does not know text as MapInfo does. So if you tranfer labels to Shape (or ArcView) a point file is created. In ArcView you have then to recreate the labels with the tools you have there ... If you trafer it back to MapInfo you obviuosly end up with points (except you use FME which is the father of the Universale translator and tell it via scripts to create labels ...) ...
