You don't need any components for that.
You can make a simple select statement to get the information from the Firebird system tables.
I don't know which system table holds field types, look it up.
Here is some example code, this selects stored procedure data from the database:
SELECT * FROM RDB$PROCEDURES
So you'll be looking at RDB$... tables!
Good luck,
Zd

Execute query like this:
select rdb$field_source from rdb$relation_fields where rdb$relation_name = :TableName and rdb$field_name=:FieldName
Good Luck!
