A New Category box where I can add additional products/category

Re: Category Boxes
 

Still not following you. Do you mean just creating a new cateogry and adding products to it? You do that in the 'Categories' section of the admin.

Edit your Category Position (POS) so each category shows up in the appropriate category box. Example: categories1.tpl calls for categories numbered from (POS) 100 to 199. " {if $categories[cat_num].order_by > 100 and $categories[cat_num].order_by < 199} "

how do you know which number is which i have lots of subs...

Re: Category Boxes
 

When you click on Categories in your Management section, you are given a list of your top-level-categories. (not sub-categories)
Just re-number them according to the Category box you want them in.
