Could you be more specific about the problem? If you are using SBuilderX then you are already building for FSX and not FS9.

In order to compile you have to click on the Arrow Pointer icon (just under the Select menu item), then click on the Select menu item. On the drop down menu select "Select All" and then click on the green button with the right pointing arrow (Compile).

That will show you the Compile dialog in which you can exclude (uncheck) the items you don't want (for example photoscenery which takes time and usually you don't rebuild that often) and then click Compile.

Make sure that in your PROJECT properties you have set the correct folder for the output BGL file(s). Also make sure you check the "Copy to FSX location" checkmark in the compile dialog. That is misleading because if your output BGL folder (project properties) is NOT the FSX scenery folder, then the label of the checkmark is incorrect. What that actually means is that SBuilderX will place the resulting BGLs in the project output folder which may or may not be the FSX scenery folder.

I hope that helps.
