Fred -

You syntax is a little off.  You may want to try:

[if type=scratch term=subcat op=ne compare="[scratch lastcat]"]
...
[/if]

  -- or ---

[if type=explicit compare="[calc]'[scatch subcat]' ne '[scratch 
lastcat]'[/calc]"]
...
[/if]

..I am not sure about the second one, because I normally only do it with 
numeric comparisons, but I hope you get the idea.
