How do I find a Category Number?

[crash]

I've got a client calendar and I'm attempting to show the last category you can choose (there are only two). $showCat=1 shows the first category correctly, and not the second. However, $showCat=2 does not show the second category, nor does 3. I don't have control panel access, therefore am not able to view the database directly. How can I find the second category?

Thanks,

I ended up finding it, but I still woul dlike to know if there is some command you can put into a template to show the cat numbers.

The process is described in the Online Docs...

Roughly:
-go in the Event Admin
-click Find/Filter (top left)
-click [Advanced] (top right)
-select which category, click Go
-click the yellow bar
- what's after the dash "-" in the yellow bar is what you put in the $showCat

Thanks mate. Can you tell me where in the online docs this is found? Under what category? I looked for quite awhile but did not find them, sorry for asking a redundant question.

You're welcome.

Under Customize -> Command Line Variables -> $showCat

Gervais-

I found that, but not the detailed instructions you first posted. I will review, but just posted before dinner to double check. I'll b back later.

That's where those instructions are... they're just not listed in a step by step format.
