Well yes of course MI 7 can do that, but that is not what the poster said. He said you could just change the file types....
Which sounds like a bunch of bunk to me. "Raghavendran" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 06/04/2003 11:54 AM To <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> cc "MapInfo-L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject RE: MI-L RE: SHAPE TO TAB ? SHP files can be opened directly in MapInfo (version 7). Go to file open in MI Pro and pull down the file type list to select ESRI(R) Shape file (*.shp) to open SHP files directly (of course it will create a TAB file automatically by the same name as the SHP file) Also dbf files can be opened in a similar manner.
