You can't modify a mbx. You need the source code. If you have that it's easy, I can help you.

So my understanding is that your mbx only supports xcel or acess input formats - ufortunately the source code has to be modfied to alow your application to work with other formats. As metioned earlier you can post/pm me the source code together with how you want it to be modified - I can help you with that and return the modified code to you.

@D33tox,

Is it possible to remove in mbx the locked for a certain pc ( i mean it will work only for certain pc) and to change the lic for time?

To lock the mbx to one PC - I don't think so. But you can put a password in the beginning of your application and give it only to the people you want to use it. Alternatively, yes time-limited license can be applied - very easy to implement a basic version but not fully water proof, see code below:

=============================================================================

If FileExists("C:\file.dll") Then
Dialog
Title "This tool is blocked!!!"
Control OKButton
End Program
End If
Dim d_today As Date
d_today = CurDate()
If d_today>="20200430" Then
Create Table "KNOCKOUT" (a Char(10)) file "C:\KNOCKOUT.tab" TYPE NATIVE Charset "WindowsLatin1"
Export "KNOCKOUT" Into "C:\file.dll" Type "ASCII" CharSet "WindowsLatin1" Titles
Dialog
Title "This tool is blocked!!!"
Control OKButton
End Program
End If
=======================================================================

A more complicated protection of your application based on time would be to get the metadata of the input files and put conditions on that - that in my opinion works better.

I hope this helps

In the attached for example, you can find a tool for mapinfo to 2G-3G neighbors with its .csv files
what i need is to create my .mbx file to be able to add or delete parameters, counters, KPIs, ... to the mapinfo
using this file or any one

or to change the vendor which used in the old mbx with my network vendor in my mbx file

As I know, we cannot edit MBX file. So how can you edit it?

You can't edit a MBX.
The only thing that can be done is to adjust your input and hope the mbx will still work.
If you have the code that was used to build the mbx (that's the mb file) then it's quite easy to modify there, re-compile and get a new mbx that will satisfy your needs.
Not much can be done without the mb file.
