Dennis,

There isn't *any* direct translation. Transact-SQL, the language your
procedures are written in, is a DIFFERENT LANGUAGE from SQL, PL/pgSQL, and
the other languages available for PostgreSQL. There is no direct
conversion, any more than there is between Tcl and Visual Basic.
You're either going to have to re-write your procedures, or you should
re-evaluate the cost of keeping MS SQL Server. Or perhaps migrate to SyBase
SQLAnywhere, which is based on the same code and is more directly compatible.
