Hello Forum,

 

I need to convert a tab file to geojson, which is ordinarily a simple task. However I am getting this error message…

“MITAB Reader: Unsupported table type 'NativeX' in file #######################.  This type of .TAB file cannot be read by this library.”

Note that the # symbols are masking the UNC path and file name.

Does anyone know a way around this?

 

Thanks,

Stuart

 

Hi @scarter unfortunately it looks like NativeX files can only be read by the MAPINFO_EXTENDED/MAPINFO_EFAL readers, not MITAB or MAPINFO. I’ve filed for better logging in the future. Let us know if you are able to read the file with the other readers!

Thanks for that, @evieatsafe . I’ll take a look. 

@evieatsafe , that has worked well. Thanks.
