The first question is - what's the platform? If it's UNIX - there is
pg_access - an X based front end. Of course psql is a the text-based front
end, and it works pretty well.

You can use Access, or any other ODBC compliant database system as a front
end for postgresql too.

Basically, you can pretty much use anything that you are used to, or have
access to, to do front-end or back-end work with Postgres. I use mostly
perl.
