Has anybody had any experiencing doing a similar port (Access 2007 to
Postgres) recently, what tools did you use, were there any gotchas you hit
etc? Or just any general advice at all here?
We recently migrated from MSAccess 2000 to PostgreSQL.
We used this great script :
http://www.rot13.org/~dpavlin/projects/sql/exportSQL3.txt
(I just realized it is mentionned in your second link)
We had to make some changes in the script. I think it was written for on
old PostgreSQL version, so some syntax did not come out right.
But the script is simple and works well.
It won't transfer constraints I think, but it will create all the DDL
queries and load all you data in PostgreSQL.
Name conversion works fine too.

The issue is we still need to maintain compatibility, where we can, with the
Access frontend.
I can't really give you any advice about this, but we kept using Access
as our Frontend and everything runs fine.
You'll just have to make sure that you have read about the 'boolean <->
integer' problem. This article is a nice start I think :

Good luck !
