Which version of MITAB are you using? I think there were some issues in V1.5.x and 1.6.0 that gave errors of this type, so if you are using an older version I'd recommend that you start by upgrading to 1.6.1.
If MITAB 1.6.1 still fails, then there are two possibilities: - It could be that your file is corrupt. To rule out that possibility, you could try to open the file in MapInfo, export it to MIF and then reimport to TAB in MapInfo under a new name, and try the new TAB file with MITAB and see if the problem persists. - If the problem persists with the new/clean TAB file, then it could be a bug or an unsupported feature type, in this case it would be best if you could submit a bug at http://bugzilla.maptools.org/enter_bug.cgi?product=MITAB and attach a sample dataset to reproduce the issue.
