The TIB_Controls get their "instructions" from the dataset fields
properties. The default column order is the same as the fields[] order
(derived from the DEGREE of each column in your SELECT statement). Any
columns which should not be displayed in grid controls should be set false
in the FieldsVisible property.

If you want to make the order different from that of the SELECT statement,
use the GridLinks property of the IB_Grid. There is detailed documentation
for this property in the help file.
