You can try one of these two :

PgArc : http://pgarc.sourceforge.net/

zigGIS : http://code.google.com/p/ziggis/

I suggest zigGIS and a better read about what it can do is here :

Goodluck on your project :)

Have a look into the ArcGIS Data Interoperability product at
http://www.esri.com/software/standards/interopdata.html.
A quick scan shows it's for ArcGIS 9.2, so it may not help with ArcView,
but it may be worth digging a little deeper.
