thanks for your response. Let me try your steps. I'm having a hard timewraping my head around this dOOdas when I look at the code...

Not sure why the ex-developers used dOOdads . Wonder why they couldnt use Microsoft's Enterprise Library...doesnt Microsoft have Ent Lib?

PockyMaster

Well, the templates I created with MyGeneration were in fact using the Ent Lib.

I created templates for Stored Procedures, Data Access Layer, and DataEntities

Then you can have your DAL refer to your dataEntities, and your BLL references your DAL + dataEntities.

If I recall right, the dOOdads stuff was combining BLL with DAL and output was not partial.

I'll try it. Thanks,

It's easy when you take an existing script and modify it to your needs. You might want to try out .NET tiers (together with code-smith). Looks pretty neat as well, but see what suits your needs. Mostly a slim and lean version is sufficient.
