I cannot see the missing ones anywhere. I discovered the problem
when I tried to load an old project and quickly recieved an error:
"Class TIBOQuery not found. Ignore the error and continue? NOTE: ..."

I take this to mean that the components aren't hidden in some other
palette page(?)

I can only see
IB Objects Core Components
IB Objects Internet Extensions
IB Objects Native Data Access Components
IB Objects TDataset Internet Extensions
IB Objects Tools Components
(all checked)
I could not see any IBO components outside of these.

I should have an old install text (for IBO/4.2, perhaps) on my old
machine. Somewhere. Found it: "IBO_HowToInstall.txt".
After a while I also found something in the 4.5 help file.

Expect to be disturbed during the weekend (hopefully, I'll get some
free time to kill). It isn't terribly urgent - my old computer still
runs (crossing fingers)
