WB presets?

Speaking of presets, how would I go about setting up WB presets that are the equivalent of what my cameras (and their dedicated Canon RAW software) provide... sunny, cloudy, etc.? Are there specific color temps that relate to each of those? Or if I took a shot with each of those settings and then saved each named respectively as a custom WB, would that work?

  Nill,
  
  At the WB tab pulldown you will see the in-camera preset choices.
  These settings are based from the make and model of DSLR.
  Custom or Auto or Kelvin setting would be set to Shot but these are not always the best settings for good consistent WB.

  It is possible to establish a WB setting and Save it for reuse.
  Some studios use this for a specific camera room for High Key or Low Key portraits. The file can then be selected and applied to all images in a Session.
  
  Hope this helps.

  I was afraid you'd say that. The only presets I have on that pulldown are "Custom" and "Outdoors (Sample)" ... how would I have lost them? Could it be a legacy of my many many previous version and beta installs? How to restore them?
  
  Thanks,
