Hello ,
  Thanks for advising how to print the hexdump on the third window.
  Now I have got a problem in first window.
  I could able to print the informations in the forms of string in the
  columns source,dectination,protocol and protocol_info respectively
by calling the column_utility routines like col_add_str.

1.  Similerly is it possible to print another string or some integer value on the column "time" in the ethereal? I think it is not possible because the time format has to be given as the input.Is there any way to convert my value so that I could print it on the "time" column.
What routines I should call to print the value on the "time" column.
2.  Similerly I want to print the  numbers corresponding to my own packets in the first column.Ethereal sorts the packets as packets read and prints the packet number.I want to print the numbers corresponding to my own packet.Is it possible? if so kindely tell me the way to print.Shall I call the routines like col-add_str? in dissector file for my packet-xxx.c.Here only I call the routines to print the values of the source and destination from the file I read.
Please help me.
