How extensive is the manual? Will I get enough information from it to program some good sounds or will I have to look for outside information sources for learning how to program and operate the Mg V?
Thanks!

It provides a decent springboard into the universe of modular synthesis. On the plus side it is well written and simple to follow. I'd consult a more advanced text for increasing your skills:
Clavia has some materials posted for their Nord Modular which have some good info that you can apply to the MMV:

Also these sites have helped me:

Found these link on the Mgmodularv Yahoo group, posted by Stephen Rivera.
"Using The Mg Synthesizer"
http://arts.ucsc.edu/ems/music/equipment/synthesizers/analog/Mg/Mg.html
Brief descriptions and general how-to info about the modules in an actual hardware Mg (belonging to UCSC, a smaller-scale version of the Modular V). Pretty useful stuff, interesting to compare the similarities as well as the differences between the hardware and software versions.
There is also a more general analog synth article here (reprint from Sound On Sound magazine):
http://www.synth.clara.net/modulars.html
It's long, contains no pictures and does not focus on the Mg, but it does a good job of introducing the reader to the general ideas and concepts of analog synthesis and synthesizer programming.
