When you get used to TIB_Grid, you'll find that it is easier and more
flexible than the control-driven stuff that you have to do with TDBGrid.

You set the visual properties as attributes of the *data*,
column-by-column, in the Query Editor. The TIB_Grid draws itself to
conform with these attributes. There are many properties you can set -
including DisplayLabel, DisplayWidth, alignment and many more. The Visible
property defaults to True - just set it False for any columns you don't
want to display.

Double-click on the IB_Query component, and use the Fields and
ColumnAttributes to set these properties.You can alter these properties and
attributes at run-time, too.

You can also set up these characteristics in your connection component, so
that they will be used globally.

For details, study the help file.
