Then you'll probably need to install the PG ODBC driver and learn the
ODBC interface. The nice thing about that is that it works with
pretty much any database, so you can switch to Sybase or Oracle or
whatever quite easily (not that you'd want to, of course ;)

There should be plenty of ODBC programming info on the web.
