2. Click in a field to activate the window, and click Add. The REFERRAL CATEGORIES window is displayed.

3. Type the category name and click OK.

4. Click Add, and type the name of the next category.

5. When you have added all of your categories, click Close. The REFERRAL CATEGORIES list window is displayed.
