We do lot things using MS Access and PostgreSQL in the backend.  Mostly queries
and such.   We have also done some forms prototyping with relative ease.    I
cannot guarantee that your conversion will be trouble free.  You may have to get
your hands dirty.

I strongly recommend that you get the latest version of the driver from our web
site at:   http://www.insightdist.com/psqlodbc  You will also want to get the
latest version (6.4) of the server.
