Not possible. Access is a Microsoft program, and only runs on a
Microsoft operating system.

There are tools, etc, on the web to help you move your data out of
Access and onto a native Linux database like PostgreSQL or Interbase 6
(both of which are on the RaQ 4).  Do a Google search for "microsoft
access postgresql" or something and see what comes up...

Looks like there are some docs on the PostgreSQL website which might
address the problem:

http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-odbc/2001-03/msg00001.php
http://pgadmin.postgresql.or/pgadmin2.php?ContentID=15

etc
