Subject Re: [IBO] Re: DisplayLabel (IB_Components.pas)
Author Andreas Hesse
When designing Databases it is normal to use an underscore as a
replacement for a space and all letters in Uppercase to make a valid
fieldname.
The Label should be readable for the user, so in most times the
default behavior would be to correct the case und to convert
underscores in spaces.

example:
FieldName: TEST_ACCOUNT
Label: Test Account

If you have special needs for displaying a label, you can use
TIB_Connection.FieldsDisplayLabel to define label text for fieldnames
like you want and need.
