category listings

While using DS3, It took a long time, cumulatively, to maintain frequently used items in the category database. The time was well worthwhile spent because it really cut down the searching time for some prop or cr2 file. Now that I'm using DS4.5 I find that the category items did not transfer over from DS3. Since I'm still using the same content/runtime folders in 4.5 as I did in 3, is there a simple copy-paste fix of a "database pointer toer type file" that will save me much time recategorizing my runtime contents?

    Tip: I also used this method (I'm now using DS4.5 with it's own categories) but one thing I did notice was it might take MANY transfers of the DS3 Categories before your DS4 has the FULL file listed and working. That was in the DS4.5 Version before .56, as I said I'm not using that method in this install.
