Thanks Helen, I knew this already, but is this information always included
in the query or is IBO asking that extra information to create the
TIB_Column. I don't have a LanAnalyzer to see what is exactly going over the
cable and I'am not sure if IB_Monitor is showing exactly only the
information that is requested by the Query component.

Look at the help for the many properties of TIB_Column, especially DataSize
and SQLLen.
