Is it possible that in the help system I could not find any refference to
something as common as TIBDataSet ?

Delphi 7 help was much better. Maybe you should ship your next Delphi
releases with 2 help systems: the currenct MS type and the old Delphi 7,
just the way it was 4 years ago, so that the user could choose from one
of these (if not both) during installation.

It seems you can use the D7 help in D2007:

Never tried it: getting used to the D2007 help system ;-). And use the
helpsystem/tutorial at http://www.delphibasics.co.uk/
