Does anybody out there use BB enough that they can recall a valid "Sector Code"?

I'm trying to shake down a web service app and the service wants a "Sector
Code"... tried the obvious like "MINING" "CHEMICALS" and so-forth, but no

luck.

I can save a couple of hours on the road driving to the client site if I can get
a valid sector code to use here...

Thanks Arvin.

I keep forgetting about Google - always think it'll return a bazillion
meaningless hits.....

Looked a little further in Google, and discovered I didn't really need
Sector Codes after all. Turns out that I needed the acronynms on the
Yellow keys instead... like "MUNI", and so-forth.
