Subject IBObjects component tabs in C++ Builder 6
Author Daniel G. Wilson
I am a new user of IBObjects, and am encountering a weird problem with C++ Builder 6 Pro. When I initially installed IBObjects, all the components showed up on the component tab bar, at the end, as one would expect.

To make them more convenient, since there are a lot of tabs on the component bar, I went into the component bar properties and moved some of the IBO tabs up in the order, so that they showed up right after the first few 'standard' tabs. After moving a couple of these successfully, I found that subsequent moves caused the moved tab to vanish completely! I have lost iboSearch, iboGrid, iboControls, iboBars, and iboMisc so far. They are still present in the list inside the component properties window, but the only way I have found to bring these component tabs back is to completely uninstall and reinstall C++ Builder, then completely reinstalling IBO. Uninstalling IBO and reinstalling did not seem to fix the problem: something inside C++ Builder has decided to hide these tabs, and insists that they stay hidden.

Anyone have any ideas? Other than "Don't do that?" <grin>

Thanks,
