I see you answered your own question. Always bear in mind that SQL is a
database query language. It only works through a database
connection. (The one exception being CREATE DATABASE).

But there is a FM to R - the IB 6 beta manuals are available (see
Downloads|InterBase at the www.ibphoenix.com website) and the SQL html doc
(also there). Use the Firebird 1 release notes to update on additions to
the SQL language since the IB beta. If you are using Fb 1.5, there are
docs on the further language additions in CVS (in the Firebird2 branch).
