answering to my own question and for those, who wants to use white choco with PAL version of FF7.
 1) extract shopmenu.mnu file from CD PAL version of FF7 and open shopmenu.mnu file in hex editor.
 2) then delete addresses 4700 - 470B, must to be deleted 12 of "00" (double zeros)
 3) after this, file size of shopmenu.mnu must be 61 892 and this will allow to open PAL shopmenu.mnu in white choco
 4) open shopmenu.mnu in white choco, edit what you want in game shops and apply changes
 5) after this, open again shopmenu.mnu in hex editor and add (insert) addresses 4700 - 470B, must to be added 12 of "00" (double zeros)
 6) after this, file size of shopmenu.mnu must be 61 904 and then import shopmenu.mnu file to CD PAL version of FF7.
sorry for my english

I think I understand - you're saying the PAL version has twelve empty padding bytes at 0x4700, and that these need to be removed before editing (and reinserted on build).
 
yes. these need to be removed before editing → Screenshot
(after editing shopmenu.mnu in white choco and saving, then insert what has been deleted)
I don't know where to upload images, and that's first what I found.

Here whitechoco.cfg file that includes names of all shops http://www.gamefront.com/files/24224911/whitechoco.cfg.rar
  name of shops 1:                                     name of shops 2:
    


If WhiteChoco crashes when you click on open file, then right click on the WhiteChoco.exe, click on the compatibility tab and choose in compatibility mode: Windows 2000 and click on the checbox: run the program in compatibility mode.

wait a minute i have a question, there's a glitch in selling ribbons and water rings in all psx versions. will this editor can be of help to that?
 
I'm afraid both links are down. Does anybody have this? I tried searching in the web, but found nothing.
 
this thread is prob old but has anyone been able to ever open ff7 or shop file itself on windows 10?
 
I had the same problem at first, for some reason White Chocobo never works when I try to open via 'Load FF7 exe'. But it always works fine by using this 'trick' from the first post:

Known Issues

    Program sometimes crashes when File...Load FF7.exe is clicked. I don't know why, but if this is happening to you, just hit alt+L instead
 
I understand this post has not been maintained in some time, but does anyone have a working download link or mirror for WhiteChoko?  Thanks!
 
When I try to load FF7.exe or SHOPMENU.MNU White Chocobo just closes anyone know how to fix this.
