I'm in the process of putting out a patch right now.
If you send me your modified files I will try and have them merged in.

I prefer to keep these similar in interface to the existing xxxxBar
components.

Its a good idea to always start your changes with as current a version as
possible but I don't necessarily require it. I am pretty careful when I
merge in other people's changes. Also, please be sure to include your
credits in the header of the source files.

I'm grateful for your help and I too find it amazing that Borland and many
other 3rd party component vendors are not more intent on considering quality
bug fixes and enhancements which come in from the consumers.

Thanks,

Subject: [IBO] Improved IB_Action, need your opinion to complete the work
