I'm struggling to display multiple categories on a specific category page.
If the category page is category-3.php then I might be using
<?php query_posts($query_string . '&order=DESC&cat=3,5,8,7') ?> on that page and it's not working.
Presumably the category-3.php overrides the query_posts?

No, your query string should override that. Something must be up with your query.
I'd use query posts - http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts

Thanks for putting me on the right track!
I've spent an hour going round in circles. I removed $query_string . and it worked.
I get muddled up with query_string. It's very specific - I have to drill it into my head - and preserves any information that was contained in the link that was clicked to arrive at a template
