  3. In the Search index file directory field, enter the directory that contains the indexes.
  4. Click Re-index to rebuild the complete index for the index type.
  5. For the Work- index file, select whether to index all classes, specific classes that you list, or all classes except those classes you list.
  6. If you selected to index specific classes that you list, or all classes except those you list, enter the classes in the List of work classes.
  7. Click OK.
