title: ASP.NET Visual Studio 2012 using existing SQL Database
body: <p>I am using Visual Studio 2012 to create an ASP.NET web application.  I tried using the Getting Starting with ASP.NET 4.5 Tutorial but it creates a simple local database and all queries are written directly in the code.  The database that I am accessing (SQL Server 2008) has fifteen complex stored procedures that I really don't want to have to retype.  </p>
  
  <p>Using the <code>DBContext</code> example in the tutorial works fine when just grabbing all of the data from the tables, but how do I use the stored procedures that are in the database?  Can someone please tell me the best way to use the stored procedures that already exist?  </p>
  
  <p>All of the questions (and answers) I've found so far are dealing with earlier versions of Visual Studio, and although I know that I could use these (since VS 2012 does support the backward compatibility), I want to make the best use of the software that I have and not use "best practices" from VS 2010.  </p>
  
  <p>If you can tell me how to use the existing stored procedures, or even direct me to a book, website, or anything else that would show this to me, I would TRULY appreciate it!  Happy coding!  And thanks for your time!</p>
