Hello,
I'm a brand new user. Is it possible to create a Transaction Report with multiple values for Category? I don't see it as an obvious option, but wanted to be sure.
Thanks!

Set the category names via pipe.

Thank you! Even though I can't select to include all subcategories, I can pipe the ones I want in. This works great:
Utilities:Internet|Utilities:Gas|Housing

This syntax is called "regular expressions". Here is an example of searching for some subcategories.
Bills:Telephone.*|Un.*

Hi, this looks great. Could another expression *exclude* specific categories?

Solved.
To exclude any categories that contain the string "apple":
^(?!.*apple).*
To exclude any categories that begin with the string "apple":
^(?!apple).*
