I did it this way:

Obtain SQL-codes for tables from MS-SQL server. Use your favourite
editor to adapt it to the slightly different PostgreSQL syntax/types.

cat <your_tables_sql_file> | psql

Install PostgreSQL-ODBC driver under Windows. Import the table data
using Access.

If you have a set of stored procedures on MS-SQL server you have
possible as much trouble as I have currently :-(.

Kind regards

Andreas.
