Brian,
Thanks for the idea. How do I tell if my Shapefile is an AV 3d file? I'm unfamiliar
with this type of file. I suppose the creators should be able to tell me.

I had a similiar problem using AV 3d file. Using AV 2d copies of the files
Shapelink converted them OK
Could this be your problem ?

Subject: MI: Shapelink bug?
I am converting shape files to Mapinfo files using Shapelink version 1.1.
The conversion completes successfully and I am able to import into Mapinfo
(v4.0), however when I ask for the projection of the layers, Mapinfo
reports that they are in an unknown projection. Also, the projection
checking program proj.mbx does not display a projection for these converted
files.
I am confident of the original projection of the shape files, which are
Washington State Plane (South) in feet, with the HPGN datum. I am using the
Washington State Plane South ( 1983 datum, feet ) projection for conversion
in Shapelink.
Anyone run into this problem? Any advice?
