Clearly, utilizing the Entity Framework (EF) requires a different approach. When retrieving an entity using a stored procedure using EF, MM.NET states to add the stored procedure to the EDM and then use the following method code:

return this.GetEntity(this.ObjectContext.OrdersSelectByPK(orderID));

I guess my question is how do I do the same for retrieving a scalar value (as opposed to an entity)?
