Firebird embedded with Visual Studio

I am trying to use firebird embedded with Visual Studio 2010, but I can't figure out how to create the database from visual studio, or how to connect to it, or anything, and I can't find any tutorials on this.

If anyone has any links to some good explicit tutorials please post them down, or maybe you can give me a few short instructions on how to start.

I have used MySQL and MsSQL, and connected with both of them, but embedded databases are very different as far as I can see.

I just ran through setting up firebird in vs2010. I documented what I did here: Create firebird data source in Visual Studio

Don't create the database from inside your IDE.

Use isql or any other tool to create the database, for example in isql you can enter the following command to create a new database:

c:\>isql
sql>create database 'c:\path\to\database.fdb' page_size 8192 user 'sysdba' password 'masterkey';
