zeroCode examines the database and generates the objects for the application.
With NO user interaction, zeroCode created a simple front-end to look at
customers listed in the database. It even knew how to tie the numeric
'State' column in the address table to the actual 'States' table; it shows
state abbrevations from that table, rather than just numeric IDs!
Drilling-down to examine one address.
zeroCode even regonizes graphics stored in "blob" data-types in the
database, and determines how displays them in a sensible fashion.
Examining and editing the UDM that zeroCode created based on the data.
Telling zeroCode to display state names (another column in the states
table), rather than abbreviations.
