in Delphi7 the package is not VCLDBX50, it is something like VCLDBX70...
In Delphi 7 it's called "vcldbx"
simply renaming it from vcldbx50 to vcldbx will solve the problem, you should do this in Project | Options on the packages tab under "Build with runtime packages" or open the *.ctg file and rename it in there.
you could also delete the projects *.cfg file and Delphi will recreate it referencing the newer packages, ie vcldbx & other delphi 7 packages rather than the Delphi 5 ones.

Do You search for VCLDBX50 in Your *.pas files?
You can use Windows utility Start/Find/Files etc
