Is it possible to assign split categories in Money Essentials?

Is it possible to create new categories in Money Essentials?

You might as well give up on Money Essentials immediately (ME), and save
yourself a lot of trouble.

No one here thinks much of ME. It's mostly designed to attract people who
just want a checkbook register. It won't import or export data.

I recommend you return ME and get a more capable version of Money.

To answer to the original question clearly: No.

I concur with Steve's advice.

I'm actually in the same boat.

What's the most basic version of Essentials that would offer these two
features?
