Firebird has great docs!

Just download the Interbase 6 documentation + Firebird Release Notes,
and you'll have full enterprise-quality docs. You can find all links for
these here:

As for admin tools, be sure to try IB Expert Free Personal Edition from:
www.hksoftware.net/download

Most have opinion that it's the best free Firebird admin tool. Of
course, you have some great commercial tools, like Firebird Workbench
which seems to be even better than M$ tools you have with MSSQL...
