Thank you for posting this. I was having the same issue and your input helped me resolve my issue.
I just wanted to add that you can get the category id without the hassle of going into the database. The id's for categories, products, manufacturers, etc. are actually used as parameters in the url's that you click to edit them. Simply login to your admin and hover over any category link and you can get your id's.
