I find that really odd. Could you convert the SDF to SHP using Fdo2Fdo and see 
what happens? I'm curious if you can remove the Has Elevation. I can't believe 
that only the Has Elevation would cause this, but anything is possible.

Thanks for the continued help Dave,

I have compared the 2 xml files and there were a couple of small differences
so I amended the sdf file to be the same as the dwg to be the same (apart
from name and geometry) but it still gives me the same problem.

The only thing that is different now is the geometry - could this be causing
the problem?

Below is the geometric properties of the dwg:
Property Name  Geometry 
Property Type  point curve surface  
Has Measures  false 
Has Elevation  false 

Below is the geometric properties of the sfd:
Property Name  Geom 
Property Type  point curve surface 
Has Measures  false 
Has Elevation  true 

Any other thoughts?

I can't believe I'm the only person seeing this happen??

Have you compared the layer definition.xml to see if there are any odd 
differences?

Not when I import them as an SDF. The weird thing is, if I import the same
file saved as a dwg then the labels work as they should.

The default behavior for polygon labels is to be generated with regards to the 
centroid of the visible portion of the polygon. Your labels aren't doing this?

It's definitely imported as a polygon because I can select it.

Any other thoughts?
Does anybnody else see this happening?

Is it possible the objects have been converted to a point/text object on import?

No,
It was a straight import in to MG Studio with no theming.
