Our Access database was established in 2002. It is has several different

categories. How do I go about adding more industries?

Just to add to the suggestions from the other folks... you can "get
under the hood" and see the actual structure of your database, if the
developer wasn't really thorough about locking you out.

Try pressing F11 with the database open. Do you see the "Database"
window, with tabs for Tables, Queries, Forms and so on? If so, please
tell us the names of the Tables and perhaps (if there is an Industries
table) open it and see if it lists the industries.

If that doesn't work, close the database and hold down the Shift key
while it's opening (to bypass the startup code which brings up your
application).

If neither of these lets you see the structure, you may indeed need to
have someone knowledgable with Access look at the database. This may
cost you a consulting fee depending on how much they need to do.
