I was just wondering if there was a super quick way to automatically add a filtering system into Drupal views.

I.e. I just need to add in the top of my view search by name (text box) and search by category (drop down box)

Or do I just manually create this form then use the filter agruments within the edit view screen?

A: 

I dont understand exactly you question, but have you tryed VBO?

However, when you create a view you can 'expose' the filters you use, so the user can change it in the view page.

I have a view which lists a series of businesses.. I want my front end users to be able to search for businesses either by name or category.

ok, then go with VBO, does exactly what you mean!

I found the answer.

It's part of the Views Module under filters - then you just expose them, simple...

Not sure what Daniel was on about?

LOL, have you read my answer? the second line "However, when you create a view you can 'expose' the filters you use" ;PI suggested VBO becose sometimes grants more control on the filters ;)
