Randy,
Great intro. I look forward to the remainder of your series very much!
If I could wish for one thing from your Part 2 article on AD files it would be for some valuable explanation and tip on how to taylor stored procedures to fit within the BDC framework. I understand that you have to write seperate procs for the Finder method and Specific Finder method but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around how make that work, practically, when adapting an existing business proc that doesn't really require this delineation-other than for the BDC.

Article 2 has been written already and should be published shortly. I think I provide pretty good guidance on how both a stored procedure and an ad hoc select statement would work in the context of a finder/specific finder/IdEnumerator methods. Let me know what you think when it comes out. If I missed something, let me know, and I'll try to fill it in.
