Yes, that feature seems to be invalid in the original Mapinfo file too.

Thanks for the warning about multipolylines.

Alister,

Thanks for the shapefile. Yes it takes a long while to load!
I've noticed that my plugin only loads 1106 of the 1107 features in the
shapefile.
On further examination I've found that the first feature (OBJECTID = 1)
could be invalid?

I also realised that although I import the multipolylines 'correctly' in
the
plugin, the Save as and Save functions are really buggy: all multi-parts
of
a multipolylines are connected to each other resulting in a spaghetti
shapefile. I'm working on a fix right now. Please do not use the save
commands on multipolylines shapefiles!

multipolylines are shapefiles that contain one set of attributes linked
to
more that one individual lines (for example, select OBJECTID 481 and you
will see what I mean: many non-connected lines are 'attached' to the
attributes of OBJECTID 481)

Cheers,
Benoit
