problem with Delphi, I got a message

Entry point not found ... in the link library VCLIB50.bpl
(I translate because I have Spanish Windows 2000)

Can't load package c:\windowsnt\system32\rbIBE55.bpl ...

    Article: Resolving daIBExpress compile problems
    ------------------------------------------------

    Question:
    ---------

    I'm receiving the following error message:
    "Unit daIBExpress was compiled with a different
    version of IBDatabase.TIBDatabase"


    Solution:
    ---------

    If you are using the latest version of IB Express, then that
    is the problem. For compatibility reasons, ReportBuilder's
    LIB units are compiled using the plain Delphi 5.0 units with
    no patches applied.

    To solve this issue, do the following:

    1. Recompile daIBExpress.pas located in ..\RBuilder\Source.
    The easiest way to do this is to add the unit to your Delphi
    project. You could also copy the .pas file from
    ..\RBuilder\Source to ..\RBuilder\Lib.

    2. If you want to use the DADE Plug-in for IB Express at Delphi
    design-time, then you need to recompile the rbIBE55 package.
    The .dpk is located in .\RBuilder\Source. Once you recompile the
    package, you need to copy the .bpl to Windows\System
    (or System32 for NT).
