As Richard wrote in his mail, do set row versioning in the ODBC setup.
Have a primary key in every table and a timestamp.
Be careful not to use to big data types in PG that aren't supportet by
Access.

Use timestamp(0) to get timestamps compatible to Access' DateTime
values.
Use serial or serial4 to create auto-values. Don't use any
bigint-types like bigserial. Access doesn't like 8-byte-ints. Keep in
mind that Access' autovalues are signed, so they'll roll over at about 2
billion.
