Dear

I'm doing a job about converting an expression of one data type to
another.
In SQLServer, there'are two functions to do this job.


From which data_type to which one?  In psql, the option \dC, will give
you the list of supported casts.

Did you try the cast operand?

postgres=# select '1235'::int , 823::text, (now()::date)::text;
  int4 | text |    now
------+------+------------
  1235 | 823  | 2014-11-02
(1 row)

In addition if you are trying to do this in/to a table column there is:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.3/interactive/sql-altertable.html

ALTER [ COLUMN ] column_name [ SET DATA ] TYPE data_type [ COLLATE collation ] [ USING expression ]
