tar is not a data format. it is a unix compression format like .zip .arj
.ace etc.
you can use winzip to extract the data file from the .tar file. Then it
depends on what format the dem is in for how you get it into mapinfo.

Subject: How to use .tar data with MI
HI,
Probably a simple question to answer for those who know!
I want to use DEM data from the USGS (EROS) for Central America. The
downloadable data are in .tar format. How do I translate such data to be
used
with MI 6.0?
Best regards,
Ole Frank
