TIBODataset has two column layers: one the VCL's persistent fields and the
other the TIB_Columns of the InternalDataset. The trick is: Don't use
persistent fields!

Teach yourself not to use scrolling datasets for batch operations on
data. That's Paradox stuff, not IB/Fb. If you need to pass data through
the client, then read the source data with a TIB_Cursor and write it with a
TIB_DSQL.

Your rules should be: make the server do data manipulation; and: if you
don't need a datasource, then you don't need a TIBO component - use a
TIB_DSQL or a TIB_Cursor.
