Here is a function written in Access (VB) that will execute a vacuum. This
should also show you how to execute other Postgres commands or functions you
have created in Postgres: All you need to do is change "vacuum" to anything
you want to call in Postgres.
Public Sub si_vacuum() Dim wrk As Workspace Dim usrname As String Set wrk = DBEngine.Workspaces(0) usrname =
wrk.UserName Set gWrkODBC = CreateWorkspace("ODBCWorkspace", "postgres", "",
dbUseODBC) Workspaces.Append gWrkODBC Set gConODBC = gWrkODBC.OpenConnection("SI_ODBC", , False,
"ODBC;DSN=PostgreSQL;UID=" & usrname & ";PWD=;") gConODBC.Execute "vacuum;" gConODBC.Close gWrkODBC.Close Set
gWrkODBC= Nothing Set gConODBC = Nothing Set wrk = Nothing
End Sub
