Oracle to T-SQL statement

Question

Short version of a long story. I am trying to use T-SQL to write a number of create statements to be used in an Oracle database. The Oracle statement that I would use to get the output I am looking for is:
select 'comment on column someschema.'||table_name||'.'||column_name||' is '''||comments||''';'
from dba_col_comments
where comments is not null
and owner ='SOMESCHEMA'
order by table_name;
However, my feeble attempts (based on numerous web searches, I am an Oracle DBA, not SQL Server) have produced this so far:
SELECT 'comment on column someschema.'+B.TABLE_NAME+'.',A.objname+' '''+cast(A.value as varchar)+''';' as value
FROM fn_listextendedproperty('MS_DESCRIPTION','schema','dbo','table','SOMETABLE','column',default)
as A, INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES as B
where value is not null
GO
This does not produce the output I need. This requires that I explicitly provide the table name for each table. I want this to be pulled dynamically as in the Oracle code. It also complains when I try to concatenate the '.' and A.objname with a +.
It only runs when I put that into a separate column using the comma.
I appreciate any suggestions anyone can provide.

kalffiend,
check if this works :
--check this
SELECT 'comment on column '+ sch.name+'.'+t.name+'.'+c.name+' is"'+ cast(value as varchar)+'";'
FROM sys.extended_properties AS ep
INNER JOIN sys.objects AS t ON ep.major_id = t.object_id
INNER JOIN sys.schemas sch ON sch.schema_id=t.schema_id
INNER JOIN sys.columns AS c ON ep.major_id = c.object_id
AND ep.minor_id = c.column_id
WHERE class = 1
(couldn't test sorry)
check this as well fr reference:
