make naics codes easier to find #12

@nathankota this might be a good one to get some feedback on.

I think we can use https://www.census.gov/eos/www/naics/downloadables/downloadables.html to make a control that makes selecting these things easier. If they update every 5 years I wonder if we should make the tool accept an xlsx file as input. Who knows how often they change the format?

After a little more research, I think hard coding it and updating the add-in when the data changes is fine.

do you mean scrapping the xlsx file as input, and manually updating the UICNAICSDomain at five year intervals (or whenever they change)?

steveoh commented 6 years ago

I'm not sure about the domain. I included the naics xlsx files in the add-in and they drive the query. I would assume the NAICS index file and the domain should be synced.

I think the button is easy to find.
