I use IBManager (it was QuickDesk), and it's not perfect but very
good, I could not live without a tool like it, so if you are serious
about Firebird developement, you *have* to buy tools like that
(http://ems-hitech.com/ibmanager/). Probably WorkBench is as good too,
but don't even try to work seriously with IBConsole!

Since Borland does not support Firebir, you have to buy specifica
drivers for it. Fortunatly a dbExpress driver for Firebird is provided
by upscene (http://www.upscene.com/)
I'm using IBO native database access and visual controls. You'd better
have a look at it, it's really powerful (www.ibobjects.com).
