Dear All,

We need to convert TAB files that contain annotations similar to the following into a SQL Server spatial table with point geometry and an attribute to represent the annotation

 

I have created the following workbench but it does not update the “dimention” attribute with the annotation text available in the MapInfo TAB file

Output

Hi ​@sandanuwan,

Would you be able to send over the TAB files so I can take a look?

Also which version and build of FME are you using? You can find this information under Help > About FME Workbench.

Thanks!

Emma
