OK, finally I could build it from source. I am using MinGW to do that. Now that I have those exe files. Now how do I start the service or the database. I see the necessary exe files under src/bin/scripts folder such as createdb.exe, createuser.exe...Any manual for that. I appreciate your help.

Dear Sir,
I am trying to build PostGreSql from http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/source/v8.3.6/. However, I am unable to find any complete step by step document how to build it in windows xp. I would be grateful to you if you could point me any URL that can guide me toward a successful compiling of the database.

If you really need to build from source you should look at:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/install-win32.html

however I would recommend you install postgresql using the binary installer on windows.
