Hi,
I'm converting a bunch of MID-MIF files to TAB format, and one of them gives:
ERROR 6: Error during reading Record.

google comes up with:  CreateField() not supported by this layer

So I check the mif headers and they seem fine, and contain 240 POINT records with schema layout of 43 fields. The mid file has 10080 commas in it, so that suggests the correct number of fields, as there are 240 records in it. So that leaves most likely a field type error, which is not so quick to check.

Can someone please pass comment on this error?
Is it a show-stopper, or is only the faulty record skipped and the rest of the file translated?

The MID/MIF files together are small (some 75KB), so I can attach them if someone is interested.

Any ideas gladly welcome.
Perhaps future releases of ogr2ogr could include the filename & record number in the error message?

TIA,
Zoltan
