I’m trying to make a Document Library Database Template so that every time you make a new database from it, the database will have a series of categories and subcategories already intact. That way people in my office can create new databases for each new client and it will already have the particular file cabinet structure in place.
I’ve been playing with the Domino Designer 6 Developers Handbook, but I can’t seem to find (or at least draw together and understand) the information that would help me do this.
Can someone give me a kick in the right direction?

In Deisgner, open the form called “document”.Edit the field called categories, and change it from “use formula for choices” to “enter choices one per line”, and then you can enter the hard coded choices you want. You should also turn off “allow choices not in list”

All you really need to know is that when a new database is created using a template, all of the documents that are in the template will also be in the new database. All you need to do is create a document set that holds your category values in the template, and you’re set.
