At Techdocs (http://techdocs.postgresql.org/) there are several papers
on MS Access and postgresql. Also, Wrox Press's new book on PostgreSQL
has a chapter on MS Access and PostgreSQL. Finally, if you run into
problem with this, join the PGSQL-ODBC mailing list, where you can talk
to other users who are using Postgres with MS Access and Visual Basic.

No. Postgres requires one of the following:
*nix computer (Linux, Unix, BSD, OS X, etc.)
WIndows NT or 2000 server.
Postgres will not, as far as I know, run on Windows 98.
