To do these operations you must have your data in native TAB files. MIF/MID is really 
just a 
transfer format and can carry bad (or out of spec) data as much as the next format. 
The problems 
you are experiencing with clipping, buffering and combining may be eased in the next 
version of 
MapInfo Pro. The last I heard, the topology management rework was still appearing in 
the next 
release.
