Since I am fond of writing scripts by hand (I find it easier to
version control text files), I always recommend doing the scripts by
hand in whatever format necessary and using SQLFairy located at
http://sqlfairy.sourceforge.net/

Decent article about it here:

Basically, if you write the scripts in one of the supported formats
(most of them), these scripts can convert them to any other format.
They can also create diagrams and full scripts to bring one database
in sync with another.  This includes all of the data that is in them
(great for lookup tables).
