Hello Board,

Thanks in advance

2 possibilities

1) down load my MBX [with source] GPX2TAB from www.wap3.com/download [is the first in the list] and may require some code tweaking for your data needs or if gpx file structure is modified

2) get QGIS from www.qgis.org and install. Very useful gis with lots of customizations.  Then add a vector layer and use your gpx file. You can then save that layer out as Mapinfo, shp, and lots of others.

QGIS is worth installing just have something more compatible with ESRI style of application and for all the goodies that can be added to it in the Plugins menu item.

Disclaimer: I have nothing to do with the QGIS project.  All of my downloads are free to use and modify, please let me know if you find problems to fix.

Or ogr2ogr:
   for %f in (*.gpx) do ogr2ogr -f "MapInfo file" outFolder %f
You can get a Windows version of ogr2ogr from http://www.gisinternals.com/
My example above just wraps the ogr2ogr command in a Windows comand line "for" loop.

Use the ogr2ogr command-line utility (www.gisinternals.com) or Qgis
(qgis.org) to convert it.
