Postgres lacks easy GUI frontend with report generation capabilities like
Access.

To fix this pgAdmin should be implemented in OpenOffice. This will create a
very good Postgres management tool for both administrators and end users.
This reduces the development cost since ready-made OpenOffice components can
be used.

I looked their web site. They have the following suggestion in
http://phplens.com/lens/product/ :
... , you will need to ALTER TABLE phplens MODIFY id CHAR(40).

MODIFY clause causes error in Postgres. Does this mean that they do'nt
bother about Postgres compatibility at all ?
