Yeah, that *is* interesting --- it means Access is trying to do all the
arithmetic for itself. I guess this means that you could keep using
the statements unchanged if you wanted to use Access as a frontend to
Postgres. Of course you're trying to get away from that, but this
might at least give you a chance of fixing things incrementally instead
of having to fix everything all at once.
