Andreas -
The problem is twofold -
* QGIS (or rather the underlying ogr library) has a bug in some cases
when determining the projection in TAB files (i.e EPSG:25832) . This
bug is solved in version 1.10 of GDAL.
* Your editing of QGIS CRS parameter database won't give you the
wanted result, because when QGIS try to find the projection of a tab
dataset it (probably) goes like this:
a) find MapInfo specific projection parameters in tab file,
b) convert these to the equivalent proj4 definition and
c) do a reverse lookup to find the EPSG code
QGIS never will never find your edited CRS parameters
As you suggested, a solution to this problem could be to let QGIS
override the "build-in" projection in a tab file with a .qpj companion
file just like the case with shape files. (Doesn't it do this already ?)
I suggest you make a feature request on the QGIS bugtracker

Re: [Qgis-user] Recognition of SRS in MapInfo-Files
Dear Community,
I just hadanidea:
If a shape fileis created withQGIS a .qpjfile is createdas well. This
file is used always when it isexisting.QGISdoesn't care of settings in
.prj file and just uses the definitions in .qpj file.That seems to be
almost perfect, becauseallchanges of the build in SRS definitions are
consideredin that qpj file.Unfortunately this file is without usefor
MapInfo TAB files.
Wouldn't it be possibleto make this goingonwith other formats as well?
Thismight be a solution that does not care about ogrsettingsin first
place. If ogr works fine nobody has needs for .qpj files. But in other
cases,everyonecould determinethe parameters to use. If these are
defined exactly like build in SRS matching should not be a problem.
Best regards
Andreas
