Well it's not exactly friendly to use but you can do this stuff with
TOOLS>TABLE MANAGER.

Alternately you can modify a copy of an existing html FGDC metadata file
manually...

And this page leads to free tools etc :

Subject: MI-L Metadata creation





Hello list,

I brought this up a while back and metadata creation has appeared again.
What are the other user (especially US government users) on this list doing
for metadata while using MI Pro since government employees are required to
keep metadata?  I have tried MetaMap's trial but it doesn't seem to have
enough fields for Federal Geographic Data Committee (FGDC) standards.
Adding them is too much work too.  I guess you could go into the .txt file
through Notepad and edit but I haven't determined if that will mess up the
.met file?  Anyone have experience with MetaMap?  Sorry for all the
questions but if I can't find a good and easy way to develop metadata to
FGDC standards, I may have to switch to ArcView since they have templates
to do this!!!!!

Sincerely,
