If you do not see the tool that you want to work with on the Running tab in the Tools Manager, then you must load it.

To load a tool, so that you can run it:

  1. On the HOME tab, in the Tools group, click Tool Extensions.
  2. On the Register tab, locate in the list the tool that you want to work with. Select the AutoLoad check box beside it to load the tool every time you start MapInfo Pro.

    If you do not see the tool that you want to work with, go to Adding More Tools.

  3. On the Register tab, click the Load Tool (Run) icon beside the tool name. This icon displays when you hover the mouse cursor over the tool name. The tool is now running and displays in the list on the Running tab.

Some tools require that you double-click on the tool name on the Running tab in the Tool Manager. Other tools add commands to the MapInfo Pro ribbon when they are running. See the tool description for notes about how to use it.
