converting microsoft sql server 2000 sql-code for postgresql 7.2.1

Hello all,

I a m a new member of the list and at the moment , I am studiing
informatica: sql.

At the workplace, we use microsoft sql server 2000.
At home, I use postgresql 7.2.1 and now I would import the data of the
database at the workplace into the postgresql environment at home.

I have paste a little part of the sql-code to create a table in a database
called "tennisclub".

To execute the code bellow with pgsql, I do the following steps:

pgsql tennisclub
\e file_with_sql_code.sql

The contens of the file file_with_sql_code.sql is as follows:

CREATE TABLE SPELERS

(SPELERSNR SMALLINT NOT NULL,

NAAM CHAR(15) NOT NULL,

VOORLETTERS CHAR(3) NOT NULL,

VOORVOEGSELS CHAR(7) ,

This code doesn't work.

Can someone tell me how I can adjust the syntax of the code and in global:
how can I convert sql-code , for microsoft sql server 2000, to sql-code for
postgresql?

Thanks in advance

best regards
