Thе '_types' table is given in the mp2shp for a sample, carefully set this table for themselves.

Now the answers to your questions:

1. 'POI' unlike the 'points' are indexed and have the address information (i.e. Searchable):

Code:

2. Main menu of MPC > Configure Map Builds... > General Tab/Edit Feature Display Styles... > Edit Feature Display Properties/Right click on a POI > Change Detailed Layer Count - allows the user to adjust the number of detail map layers that the selected features will be included in.

3. Soon a new [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] will have a function of further export the data of MP format to other map formats. For example, MapInfo format or ESRI Shape format.
In my opinion, Shapefiles edited conveniently in MapInfo.

Discussed in [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] thread too ...

Note: MPC is complex and multifunctional tool, please scrutinize the HELP before using it!
