Robert,

we have been using IBO.  I agree with Peter that database changes 
will be more substantial than component based.

What we have done is to not use IBO's native components as they 
only work IBO's controls.  Apparently these perform miles ahead of 
the non-native ones.... but I am not prepared to be totally dependent 
on IBO.
