Hi Brett,
If you can create MID/MIF, just open the mid file in a text editor and
check that the number of lines is the same as the number of features in
your shapefile.
If yes, then you should have all your elements.
Then simply convert the MID/MIF to TAB
It's a 2-step solution, but it should get the job done.
On the other post regarding the changing EPSG code, check the beginning
of your MIF file to see if it is "wrong" there already (MIF is also a
text file)
If so, it may be BUG-reporting time.
I am assuming that your shapefile has a PRJ file, or in QGIS you have
set the correct projection/CRS
HTH,

Zoltan,
I'm running the ogr2ogr using ogr2gui. Is that cheating? I get in trouble
with command line stuff.
I can export a mid/mif, works perfectly every time. It's just not what the
client wants. I've attached a sample SHP file. It was created by importing
a CSV file then exporting as a SHP file.
Donovan,
I ran : Vector > Geometry Tools > Check Geometry Validity but came up
with no errors.
Couldn't find the "Topology Checker" plugin. Is that a version 2 feature?
Thanks your feedback. I appreciate the effort.
Brett

I usually get that error when some of the shapefile features are "invalid".
Did you get a chance to check for validity of the features in the shapefile?
In QGIS you can use the "Topology Checker" plugin.
