$$$$ I have a column for password and obviously as name suggests..it
cannot be displayed..I have solved this problem by having a duplicate
entry private_password that does not have a column in the GtkList and
i compare with this private_pwd entry...

$$$ Yes..thank you. This code was initially i <= my_list_store->len
and i was just trying out different options...Experimental code..

just needed to avoid using goto .....


Thanks again
