They should be there as a download - if you got to the page where the doc is
maintained as a link www.ibphoenix.com/ibp_document.html
then underneath there is a link to the program (Delphi & SQL) downloads.
There are a large number of docs also hosted on this page too.

There are a number of docs here, about using InterBase in various ways
shapes and formats with various tools...
Check also www.ibphoenix.com/ibp_research_examples.html

All contributions from wherever gratefully received, Ann, Paul and I can't
write everything :-), however I continue to browse through the collections
of doc's I have written or have collected over the years, and continue to
post them at IBPhoenix.
