There isn't anything that the database gives you as support. I'd start by cutting this to a text file and then building a shell/perl/java script which parsed it to build the SQL+ script. The problem would be getting the datatypes.

If you could get the datatypes, then the shell/perl/java script could run the thing for you as well.
