I agree, using ODBC is probably a good first step.  Especially for M$Access.

For developers I recommend the EMS Manager tools.  They are a commercial
product but I have been very pleased with them and we use the tools every
day.  They are not exactly like SQL Manager but they serve the same
purpose.  See http://www.sqlmanager.net/ .

Are there any web based management tools for PostgreSQL (like Mysql PHP
Admin except for PostgreSQL)?  I thought I saw a post sometime back about
one but don't remember the name.
