You might also check out the Summary section, if you haven't done so already, since you want to see your Category breakdowns. In there, you'll find some preloaded Account Summaries listed to the left, which are already set-up to show Category subtotals with everything broken down by month.
Also, to further customize your Summary experience, click on the New button at the top of the window. Then, you'll be able to adjust various settings to hopefully get you exactly what you're looking for.
Many thanks Allan, I have already looked at that section and will look at it more carefully, but I do not think it gives me what I need: comparisons this_year/last_year of expenses by months and by categories.
