Default In Outlook, can a filter be make to include two categories?

In Outlook 2007 I am trying to combine two catagories into one, to create a
new catagories. Can this be done?
I have customers and website lead in their own categories and the month each
customer/lead is received in another catagory. I would like to filter the
customers and leads into their own group by month.

I'm not sure what you want to do. If you have, say, category 'a' and 'b' and
want all of those items to be in category 'c', this would work: Group the
view by categories, and assign at least one item manually to category 'c'.
Now select all of the items from 'a' and 'b' and drag them into the group
for category 'c'. If necessary, select all of them again, right click,
choose Categorize, and remove 'a' and 'b'.
