   Generally, Yes, using a * to select everything is ok. I like to 
identify all fields in my select statements. Probably abit of a personal 
choice, but it does have advantages.

I also noticed that in your first post you had:

   Edit1->Text=DataModule1->DataSource1->DataSet->FieldValues["Uniqf"];

but you mentioned the field name is UniqueIdentifier, is that correct?

Another suggestion I would make is to be sure your connection is 
becomming active. If it is not then you would also get the Field Not 
Found error.

If that doesn't help let me know, I will try to throw out some more 
ideas. :)
