There are programs to help you move Access *tables* to pgsql, but
I don't know of anything that would help you move VBA functions to
Access.
A chart of the 'usual' conversion (ie InStr, Left$, etc.) VBA <->
pgsql SQL would be a simple project for someone to start. (Any
takers?)
In the PostgreSQL + Access faq (www.scw.org/pgaccess), there
are tips about many Access->PostgreSQL conversion issues,
including how to rewrite some queries to support things like outer
joins, transform queries, etc.; but nothing about VBA functions. If
you come across such a resource, could you email me (or this list,
or better still, the INTERFACES list), so it can be added to the FAQ?
