A Yahoo search for "pecan tree propagation" (include the quotation marks in the search box) yields 22 results. If you do the same search, and are willing to spend a little time exploring, I'm sure that you will quickly find the information you seek.
Good luck with your search.

Pecans are propagated by planting a pecan. The quality of pecans from the seedling is unpredictable. Pecan trees are usually grafted to insure a tree that will produce a good crop of pecans. This is explained at pecanworld.com

You can only propagate pecans from seed (the nut). They do not need a cold/dormant time to sprout. Just plant them about three to four inches deep and provide water. Even better, just go buy one or dig one up with the surrounding soil intact. Saves time and your water bill if you live in the South/Southeast. Get permission first.

Store the seed in adark cool place (fridge) until spring. Lightly cut the shell (scarification) or scratch through for faster germination and plant in loamy soil the depth to equal 11/2 times the length of the seed. After the first true leaves appear, move the container to the area of transplant and allow to stay a few weeks. After the fleshy stem start to harden, transplant into the ground in desired location. Good luck!
