Welcome to IWETHEY!

New PostGreSQL client tools
Any experience with using WinXX tools to access a back-end PostGreSQL database? I'm about to implement a relatively small system (3MM records, 5 tables) and my local internal end-users will be doing their data exploration via Windows desktop tools.
New Just a thought
I think PostgreSQL has an ODBC interface. Could you build a front end in Access?

(Just thinking out loud here, you understand.)

New Yes you could
but you would need an Access license to use Access. It could also be written in Visual BASIC or Visual C++ or any other language that handles ODBC or ADO connections.

Hmmm, I am tempted to write one myself if I ever figure out how?

New Re: Just a thought
Whether in Access or whatever, you'd want to do it through ODBC I'd assume.
