It seems to me that SQL pass-through is kind of contrary to what the OP 
needs.

A query in SQL pass-through mode will be executed as if it was typed in 
psql, that's the point of this mode. So refering to an Access table 
like your example query does is not going to work.

What the OP can do is attach the CSV file in Access so that it will 
appear as a table and should be usable as such in an update or insert 
query within Access query builder. It's quite straightforward, there's 
no need for temp files or COPY.
