Are your human, or a cyborg? ;))
You are missing one fabolous source of help: read the previous list posts! There is a "search" field in yahoo list. Doing so, you can find a lot of answers, like the one about IB_Cursor vs IB_Query.
Don't forget the Online Faq too on www.ibobjects.com(http://faq.ibobjects.com/scripts/ibofaq.dll)

For GSG suggestions or "bug report", you can e-mail directly to Helen Borrie, the author of the guide.

Well, it's a Getting Starting Guide. Maybe there is a need of an Advanced Topic Guide. You know, a 200 pages, high detailed GSG would not be very useful... hope that guide will be write, we need it. I've collected tons of tips&tricks, and some "advanced answers", but there is a need of an english speaker "guru" for that.

Good luck :)
