[Qgis-user] TAB file export

[Brett Adams]

Thanks Bo,

 

Interesting outcome.  I'll have to watch out for the projection change.

 

Looks like I'll have to accept that it's time to update.  2.4 is soon to be
released. Time to make the jump.

 

Thanks for your feedback.

 

Brett

Brett -

I've opened your shape file in QGIS and afterwards saved it as a tab file -
without a hitch. I'm using a newish version 2.3 of QGIS. 
I've opened the new tab file in MapInfo and it works. The only strange thing
is, that the projection shifts from EPSG:28351 to EPSG:32751 

Tabfile attached

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.

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.
Or Vector > Geometry Tools > Check Geometry Validity.
