Suppose you had a widget CMP entity bean, with a handedness field, and 
wanted to get all the left handed widgets.  You'd use a finder method, 
findByHandedness("left"), to return a collection of left handed widgets.

Orion makes this easy; just define it and go.  See 
http://www.orionsupport.com/ for details ( 
http://www.orionsupport.com/articles/ejbfinderquery.html ).  More 
complicated finders ("left handed widgets sold on Mondays") takes a little 
more effort, also described on Orionsupport.

BTW, Orionsupport is a private effort, not an official site.  The 
maintainer occasionally uses the server hardware for other purposes, so if 
it doesn't respond wait a while and try again later.
