Re: Using MS Access front-end with PG

I've got an MS Access front end reporting system that has previously used MS SQL server which I am moving to Postgres.

The front end has several hundred if not thousand inbuilt/hard-coded queries, most of which aren't working for the following reasons: 1.) Access uses double quotes ("") as text qualifiers, PG uses single quotes. ('') 2.) The Like function in SQL Server is case insensitive, PG it is case sensitive. The ilike function is not recognised by Access and it tries to turn that into a string, making my test (like "ilike 'blah'")

Has anyone had any experience with moving an access program from SQL server to PG?

Is there any way to change the text qualifier in PG or the case sensitivity?

I would suggest pushing things like this to a pass through query.
