pgaccess is what you may want to look into. It is a Tcl/Tk application,
and is reminiscent of Access, but is a front end to Postgres (you would
use pgaccess instead of psql). Another option is to install the PostODBC
drivers and use Access itself (or something similar) to use under Windows
and connect to the server. A quick and dirty method is to create your
tables with psql, input the data into an Access database, and then import
the data into postgres.
