Assuming you are using TIB_Query and TIB_Datasource, not TIBQuery...

DB_Key is appearing in your output set because your table has no primary
key. It can't be used to make your output set updatable; but it will be
OK if your query is just for reading.

To make ANY ib_query column invisible in the ib_grid, just go into the
Fields Editor, prepare the query, go to the Field Properties tab, select
the DB_KEY column and set its VISIBLE property to False.
