categories

I cant manage to show on a page, on the left side the categories. I selected for the page under Design - layout to 3 columns, Right side shows fine but nothing on left side. New to magento so i`m not sure in wich file in the template i have to look for. Its a custom template installed so i got so far to:

app/design/frontend/default/f001/template/

but not sure now if to look under catalog or paeg folders
