Pelle,

Since I'm working with D5, I have that quind of problems too often. What I
realized is, even without having that method, TIBOQuery is aware of a Int64
field, and always give you the right answer in a AsString statment (ie,
internally it calls Int64ToStr on this fields to return you the string).
It's easy for you to use this value and create a new method.
