Do you know which charset the Access data is stored in?
Follow Martijn's advice and set the character set of your connect to match
that of the database.

Then, if you are still getting the transliteration error, you could
experiment with "casting" the incoming string data to that character
set. For example, with ISO8859_1:

INSERT INTO ATABLE(INTCOL, STRINGCOL)
VALUES (99, _ISO8859_1 'StringWithTestChars');

You'll need to choose a character set that is compatible with the client
character sets, too....
