Object classes
An object class specifies a set of attributes that you
can use to describe an object. For example, if you created the object
class tempEmployee, it can contain attributes that
are associated with a temporary employee such as, idNumber, dateOfHire,
or assignmentLength.
You can add custom object classes to suit the needs of your organization.
