this two lines?

you program don't have these?


Yes, it does.


Sorry, I was thinking of the top-level "Ethernet II" header.
The "Source or Destination Address" entries are *not* displayed in Ethereal, because they are added with one of the "_hidden" versions of the "proto_tree_add_" routines. Those routines set the "visible" flag in the "field_info" structure to FALSE; your program should not display protocol tree items unless "visible" is TRUE.
