First be sure your mapinfo tables are geographic coordinated and their
coordinates are true and then use universal translator ( which is a small
tool coming with mapinfo ) to convert your mapinfo table to the Esri shape
or another file format... If your source mapinfo tables do not have a fixed
coordinated your datas will not be in the expected position...

P.S/ Please check again your table's projection... Map--> Options -->
Projection or table--> maintenance --> table structure...

Subject: [MI-L] MapInfo setting/changing table Projections



Hello List

I have received a vector file that was originally digitized in user
coordinates and then projected into geographic ones. When I open the table
in Mapinfo it registers where it should but if I bring it into another
program like ArcGIS or Micromine, it registers to the user coordinates and
the geographic coordinates go to "unknown". Is there anyway of "marking" the
table so the geographic coordinates are recognized and not the user ones??

Thanks

Tony
