PgAccess's interface building tools are not complete at this time, nor
are likely to be anytime soon that I know of.

Further, it's pretty much impossible to convert an MSAccess interace
directly into anything else. Database Creations makes a tool that
converts MSAccess to Visual Basic, but not even that works 100% of the
the time.

The reccomended course of action, if you have an established MS Access
application, is to convert your data to a PostgreSQL database, and keep
your forms and interface code in MS Access, accessing PostgreSQL via
ODBC.
