I wrote this add-in to save myself some time while working on a project I am doing that has lots of lookup tables and views. It took me a bit longer that I thought but it was interesting.I think it's a useful utility and add-in example to share with all of you. Hope it helps
I put this together LATE last night and finshed tonight so beware there might be a mosquito just waiting to sting.
I added a few screenshots, a zip with the source andv a zip containing the addin and the .dll you can just unzip to your C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Addins or wherever you addins directory is.
Gotta go Enjoy

2.Launch the business object mapper
3.Configure the project
4.Configure the each Business Object--- for 10 Bo's do this step 10 times
5. Build the partial class(s). You would select the table and views you wich to create
With Add In
