Greetings,

I have a trouble with TAB-files in MapLab 2.1-rc3. I have a map-file
which uses 2 shapefiles and works fine. But when I am trying to add TAB
file connected to TIFF file, which covers small part of the big map,
browser MapBrowser window shows nothing, and there is no ROSA controls
in the window. I tryed to add TAB via MapLab interface, after that tryed
to add it manually using this sample :

LAYER
NAME "Builtup_Areas_tab"
TYPE POLYGON
CONNECTIONTYPE OGR
CONNECTION "data/tab/092b06_builtup_a.tab"
STATUS ON
CLASS
...
END
...
END

But there it doesn't work. I also tried to build the mapfile with only
one layer, which uses TAB but without any effect. During various
experiments with Extent, ROSA application starts (sometimes), but I
never saw my tiff image in MapBrowser or application window.
Please, give me some good advices.

Here is configuration of my mapfile and .tab file.
