No response.
This breaks all of the forms that I have to go back to edit.
All of them that have TIB_Edits have to have the buried
properties changed so that they will at least look like they
were before the 4.5h release:

1. Spacing not equal to 0 like it was in the old components.
2. albTrimX set to true so that all data labels that are longer
than the field are not truncated arbitrarily.
3. Model does not work right.
4. The functions excpected in the TIB_Datasource window do not
work anymore.
5. Other things that I would have to detail how to show them,
btu strange nonetheless.

And I can assume they are not fixed in 4.5I?
