So, what is the proper way to connect a 220v sub-panel that has a single
bus bar for neutral and ground to a main panel with the neutral bar bonded
to the ground bar?

There isn't one.

To make a Code-compliant connection, you must install a second bar so that
you
can separate the neutral and ground conductors for the various circuits to
separate busses. The neutral bus must be electrically insulated from the
ground bus and from the panel chassis, and the ground bus must *not* be
insulated from the chassis.

*Also* you must connect the subpanel to the main panel using *four*
conductors, e.g. black, red, white, and bare (or green). White goes from
the
neutral bus bar in the main panel to the neutral bus bar in the subpanel.
Bare
(or green) goes from the ground bus bar in the main panel to the ground
bus
bar in the subpanel. Black and red go from the two lugs on the circuit
breaker
in the main panel which feeds the sub, to the lugs on the main breaker in
the
subpanel.

It's time to throw all their damned tea in the harbor again.

Thanks for your help and advice.
I've located a grounding bar kit from the panel manufacturer and
will install it along with (4) wires from the main panel (white,
greeen and two black) so that the neutral and ground are separate.
