I have read several article on the ability to us a gray card in a photo and then adjusting the white balance in Camera Raw or CSII. How do you achieve this?

If you have a neutral gray card in your picture (or at the beginning of a series of pictures under the same lighting) you will have perfect reference point when color correcting a photo. Open the picture in PS and go to the curves or levels, click on the neutral gray eyedropper then click the gray card, the rest of the picture will automatically correct to the neutral gray.

The card I have came with one of my PS books Black / Gray / White.
It's a great tool..can save hours of color correcting later.
