Firebird 2 Quick Start Guide

14 March 2007 – Document version 3.5 – Covers Firebird 2.0 and
2.0.1
The Firebird Quick Start Guide is an
introduction for the complete newcomer to a few essentials for getting off
to a quick start with a Firebird binary kit. The guide first saw the light
as Chapter 1 of the Using Firebird manual, sold on
CD by IBPhoenix. Later it
was published separately on the Internet. In June 2004, IBPhoenix donated
it to the Firebird Project. Since then it is maintained, and regularly
updated, by members of the Firebird documentation project.
Important

version. This guide covers versions 2.0 and 2.0.1. If you run another
Firebird version, get the corresponding Quick Start Guide at http://www.firebirdsql.org/?op=doc.
