A simple example:

Put the database commands in a text file (precede comments with --):

  CREATE DATABASE junk;

  \connect junk

  -- Table "a" is adgaga axdfaxdfga hgfadsh
  CREATE TABLE a (f1 INT PRIMARY KEY,
                  f2 TEXT);

  ...and so on...

Then run the script:

  $ psql <sql.script

(Obviously you need to be a database user with the privilege to let you
do everything that is in the script.)

(I see you are using Microsoft mail software.  The above commands are for
Unix; I don't know whether they need any modification for Windows.)
