As someone who develops professionally for MSAccess<->ODBC Servers
(PostgreSQL and MS SQL Server) I'd say that we can ignore this. There
are a *lot* of circumstances where the "Filter by Form" interface breaks
down; I don't think that it works properly with MS SQL Server 7.0,
either.
At most, rather than modifying the query parser and building extra
compile-time options, how about talking to the Great bridge folks about
modifying PgODBC? That seems like the appropriate place to tell the
system that "= NULL" is equivalent to "IS NULL" -- if anywhere.
