Hi:

Can anyone explain the following?

the Error log file gives the following lines:
	Tue May 25 09:50:17 2004 - getSymbol(): Symbol definition error.
Parsing error near (KODIAK PLACE):(line 1363)
	Tue May 25 09:50:17 2004 - getSymbol(): Symbol definition error.
Parsing error near (449):(line 1363)



Ogrinfo gives the following output snippet:

OGRFeature(CAD_text):7846
  DXF_ (Integer) = 7846
  DXF_ID (Integer) = 7846
  X (Real) = 494272.209545523
  Y (Real) = 6729098.07961854
  OFFSETX (Real) = 0
  OFFSETY (Real) = 0
  HEIGHT (Real) = 6
  SYMBOL (Integer) = 4
  LEVEL (Integer) = 5
  TEXT (String) = KODIAK PLACE
  e00_anno_id (Integer) = 7846
  e00_text_level (Integer) = 5
  e00_anno_name (String) = DXF
  Style = LABEL(t:"KODIAK PLACE",a:0.000000,s:4.799023g,c:#000000,p:1,f:"")
  POINT (494272.206 6729098.082)

the layer definition in the map file is
	LAYER
		NAME "Cadastre Text"
		CONNECTION
"e:\GIS_Claims\gisdata\MapInfo\Cadastre\CAD_text.tab"
		CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
		METADATA
			DESCRIPTION	"Cadastre Text"
		END
		STATUS ON
		TYPE annotation
		minscale 100
		MAXSCALE 5000
		STYLEITEM "AUTO"
		LABELITEM "TEXT"
		CLASS
			debug true
			NAME "Cadastre Text"
			LABEL
				position auto
				PARTIALS true
				angle auto
			END # end of label
		END
	END # layer
	

I have tried every combination of symbol file -- blank - one known good
entry -- there are no symbols in the map file --
what symbol is it looking for?
