Hi Brett

Can you convert the shapefile to mapinfo (TAB or MIF/MID?) on the 
command line with ogr2ogr?

Can you upgrade to QGIS 2.2 or wait a couple of weeks for 2.4?  It uses 
a new version of GDAL/OGR.

Have you checked http://www.gdal.org/drv_mitab.html for possible error 
sources?  And see 
http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/gdal-dev-Unable-to-create-MApInfo-tab-File-td5095559.html 
for the same error but no solution :-(
