First, please address all questions and help requests to the mailing  
list (https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kmymoney) and not to any  
individual.  I may not be available, and there are many others who can  
also provide good help and suggestions.  Also note, not everybody will  
CC: you when replying to the list, so you do need to subscribe or at  
least check the archives to see if anyone has replied.

Regarding your question, I'm not really sure what the problem is.  When  
creating a new, split transaction, enter the payee as usual (assuming  
it is a normal deposit or withdrawal transaction) and then, instead of  
selecting a category, click on the split icon just to the right of the  
category field.  That should bring up the split editor.  Click in the  
first box to enter a category.  Then, hitting <TAB>  should take you to  
the memo field, or you can just click in it.  What actually happens if  
you try either of these?
