I would like to make a custom view for contacts that is sorted by
categories. I would like to hide numberous categories, but not the contacts
in them. To clarify, I have contacts in the following categories: West
Field, South Central, East KY, but they are all in the Category Kentucky.
I'd prefer not to see a lot of category names in this view, because the
contact is in another category.
Thanks,
ck

What you want to do is not possible. A view that groups by categories will show a group for each category that is represented by the items. You can collapse the Kentucky category, though, to make it easier to ignore.
