Hi Geoff

Is it possible to implement this feature in your IB_Label-Component ? In
my App I'm using your old FieldDisplayLabel very often and I want to
switch to IB_Label next time. The problem I have, is that, when my app
starts I'm doing a lot of initializiations before the Queries are prepared
and one thing I need, is the DisplayLabel of a field.
Please tell me, what you think.
