Those files stay until you delete them. It's a good idea to delete them before you copy in new TXT files to test. Make a little batch file with the line
del data\global\excel\*.bin
and that will take care of that housekeeping chore. Make sure you have moved (and packed) the BIN file(s) you want first!

i also learned (the agonizing way...) that you must not only start the game, but enter a game and then save and exit for the bin files to show up. as for Manald Heal ring, did you edit patchstring.tbl? (and pack it right?....)
