Ok, I put all components on a form and it worked as you said.

But, I have a lot of reports including ibx components, like
frIBXDatabase and frIBXQuery with sql code etc. The reports are
already designed with bands etc that point to those ibx components.
Some reports contains a hundred memos and so on.

How do I convert those reports to IBO, the easiest way?
