Does this work?

Try
..
MyModifiedFlag := False;
with myquery do
begin
for jj:= 0 to columncount - 1 do // should be zero-based..??
if fields[i].IsModified then
if fields[jj].Name <>'TheOneTheAppModified' then // didn't you mention this?
begin
MyModifedFlag := True;
break;
end;
end;

TIB_Row has BeforeModify and AfterModify. IB_Dataset.Fields[] is a TIB_Row. The events pass the IB_Column as a parameter.
