I am doing the same thing right now. I found that teaking the data types of
the tables in Postgres helps. For example:

Access data type Postgres data type

Boolean int2
>char(20) varchar
<=char(20) char

The use of varchar over char seem to help the most with errors, especially
with long character fields.

Thanks, Michael

I've been hunting through the archives of this list for answers to a
specific
problem... I'm trying to link tables from Access 97 to Postgres
6.4.2 and
getting a ODBC call failed error whenever I try to view the table.
Now, I've
found messages discussing the problem, but I can't find any
suggestions on how
to fix, or at least work around, the problem. Any suggestions would
be
greatly
appreciated. Thanks,

J. J. Franzen
