Going back a number of years I was having a similar problem with
converting BDE code to work with IBO. First time round I gave up, then
six months later - while fighting to get the BDE stuff stable - I tried
again, but starting from scratch rather than converting the BDE code. It
made all the difference and in a couple of months I had an even better
application than the one I had been trying to make stable for nearly two
years !
So start with clean IBO code and you will be better of ;)
