Re: DataBase

http://techdocs.postgresql.org/

about halfway down has a section 'Converting from other Databases to
PostgreSQL'
this might help with some of the issues.

if you use system DSN's (file/user/whatever) you should be able to just
create a new one using the ODBC driver to postgresql, and write directly
in... the biggest problem you'll have that way is the table creation - since
unless you used pure ANSI standard SQL datatypes, postgresql probably won't
handle certain types that SQLserver/MSAccess would use.
