Does it "contain" a TDataset or is it just that it links to TDataset?
If the former then you must write a new component (a derivation cant
remove an embedded component until it provides a virtual procedure in
which to create). If the latter then you should have nothing to do to
link to TIBODataset - but perhaps you mean TIB_Dataset?

Perhaps if you provide more detail about what you are doing I can
offer more help, at the moment I have my doubts.
