Hellow.
My teste to developer application with Microssoft Access, ODBC and Postgres.
With grant selet in one field, other fields is revoke permissions, access in
table with Microsoft Access is not possible. Failure is generate, to
permission denied. In Microsoft MS Query, no error.

I think you'll need to explain this in a bit more detail, with:

- Table definitions
- The EXACT commands you ran
- The EXACT error messages

As far as I know, running:

  GRANT SELECT on tablename(column) TO user;

shouldn't in any way restrict their existing rights, and the documentation backs that up:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/sql-grant.html

A user may perform SELECT, INSERT, etc. on a column if he holds that privilege for either the specific column or its whole table. Granting the privilege at the table level and then revoking it for one column will not do what you might wish: the table-level grant is unaffected by a column-level operation.

... so I think you might need to show what's happening in a bit more detail.

Beware that there isn't a big Microsoft Access community here.
