Have a look at these documents:
http://www.ibobjects.com/TechInfo.html
in particular:
"RAD with IBO"
http://www.ibobjects.com/docs/ti_RADwithIBO.zip

With native components you can setup things really fast and
error-prone, and provide advanced functionality to your users in a snap.
Also reading GSG (Getting Started Guide) is important to start
understand native stuff.
(btw, if you want report components that work with IBO native set, you
can have a look at FastReport http://www.fast-report.com/)
