I'm not sure if I'm fully understanding your question, but there is an
ODBC driver that does come with the standard distribution of PostgreSQL,
in the src/interfaces/odbc director

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.
