Assigning database categories for the Domain Search form
On the Design tab of the Database Properties box, you can assign one or more categories to each database to be included in the Domain Index. These categories appear on the search form to provide a user with a way to narrow a search. Categories are also displayed in views of the database catalog and Domain Catalog.
About this task
