I took a project to do this under contract a few years ago.  Quite
frankly, it was an interesting and trouble-free project.  Any
competent programmer should be able to handle it for you.  The cost
involved is going to depend on the amount of procedures to convert.

Of course, I did it all by hand.  If someone out there has a program
to convert, it would probably reduce the cost.  But I also had the
ability to optimize some of the SPs as I converted them.
