Grep the following documentation sets:

- Firebird Quick Start Guide
- InterBase 6.0 Beta Documentation

They are available here (watch the wrap):
http://www.ibphoenix.com/main.nfs?a=ibphoenix&page=ibp_download_documentation

You should also read the Firebird 1.5 Release Notes, which
comes with every Firebird 1.5 distribution. Have a look in
your %Firebird%\doc directory.

A full-fledged Firebird documentation set is available on
the IBPhoenix CD. It isn't free though, but every penny
worth. Really.
