Scott,

>I am trying to follow the steps in the users guide (version 4.0.0) to create entity framework Entity objects. IN step 4 of Adding an Entity Data Model to Your Project, it says:

Go to the Properties panel and change the Custom Tool property from EntityModelCodeGenerator to mmEntityModelCodeGenerator (just add an "mm" prefix to the default value). This instructs Visual Studio to use MM .NET' s Entity Data Model code generator when generating entities from the diagram.

It looks like you have an older version of the MM .NET Dev Guide. With .NET 4.0 and EF 2, we no longer use a custom code generator, but use T4 templates instead. You can download the latest version of the MM .NET Dev Guide from our site.
