hi all we have a user who has translated a mapinfo tab file into an esri shape using version 4 of the universal translator that comes with mapinfo 7.5.
although it has maintained the projection (as you would expect, it reads from the source file) it has garbled the datum, ellipsoid etc 'world placement' settings. has any one else seen this or know what why it happens? im assuming that there is some kind of mappings file in the UT utility that controls the translation of these values, but equally the error could be in the code not picking up the original values to start with. the problem did not occur with an older version of UT apparently, although we are verifying this. all suggestions welcome! thanks rachel --------------------------------------------------------------------- List hosting provided by Directions Magazine | www.directionsmag.com | To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message number: 14190
