I wanted to run a set of tasks that end by producing DTO's in addition to the usual entities. For that purpose I saved the existing Adapter preset under a different name, and then added The DTO Template Tasks in the "Task Queue To Execute" window. I am under the impression that there are built in templates available that will produce a DTO in this manner. When I execute the codegen I get errors on the DTOClassCreator and DTOClassCreator2 as well as the Project Creator. Here is the message it shows.

Is there a set of instruction steps available that lists how to get the DTO template to work and what I need to do with this err? I am guessing I missed a step along the way.

Task group: Create DTO Classes. For database: SQL Server (SqlClient) (2D18D138-1DD2-467E-86CC-4838250611AE). Task: DTOClassCreator • Could not find template 'SD_DTOTemplate'. It is not defined in the used templatebindings or is empty. It can be it's not defined for the current database (e.g. stored procedure templates for SqlServer CE) Task: DTOClassCreator2 • Could not find template 'SD_DTOTemplateType'. It is not defined in the used templatebindings or is empty. It can be it's not defined for the current database (e.g. stored procedure templates for SqlServer CE) Task: DTOProjectFileCreator • Could not find template 'SD_VsNet2010Template'. It is not defined in the used templatebindings or is empty. It can be it's not defined for the current database (e.g. stored procedure templates for SqlServer CE)

I may have answered this myself. The Task performer is looking for a specific ID of SD_DTOTemplate which points to the location of the lpt file in the Binding Viewer. Once I changed the ID to SD_DTOTemplate things worked.
