In a checkbook type spreadsheet is there an example out there or a
simple method to extract information depending on the month?  That is,
one has a spreadsheat with a column of dates, a column of check
numbers, bla bla bla, and a column of catagories.  I would like to
have a section where the expenses by category is broken down monthly.

I have the manuals, but can not find a straight-forward technique.
Any pointers or assistance is appreciated.
