Easimaps was developed by ERSIS Australia before they were bought out then
took over MapInfo Australia.  The developer was Brad Peppler, who is a
very talented programmer.  I think that easimaps eventually became
exponare.

I would be very very surprised if all configuration info was not in either
a ini file or an access database in the same directory as the mbx.  It
would depend on how old the copy of Easimaps is.
