Can anyone point me to an Interbase dbExpress driver that will present
UNICODE format fields properly as TWideStringField instead of
TStringField? If not, then can anyone suggest a workaround that will
allow me to get UNICODE data from an Interbase database to the TNT
Unicode DB Controls, without the data being corrupted en-route?

Thanks,

Noel

A work around might be TTntStringField which presents a
IWideStringField interface to Tnt db aware controls, and allows you to
encode the string as UTF8 for storage in the database. Obviously this
is not ideal if Interbase is indeed capable of storing 16-bit Unicode.
