convert non-asni sql to ansi sql?

Hi,

I tried converting this using Query Editor but it rejected it.

select LDate, b.Book, a.Type, a.Cusip, Ticker,Description, a.BankCode               

   dbo.SL_LPositions a,

.SL_LBankDTC b,

.sl_Lfisemap c

a.BankCode*= b.Bankcode

a.type*= c.type

a.cusip*= c.cusip

and a.colltype='C'

and c.category='lnpos'

and LDate='20140130'

thanks
