How about using val_to_str() in
combination with an appropriate proto_tree_add_xyz_format()
function? Something like:
static const
value_string msg_vals[] = {
{42, "Name of Message (42)"},
{0, NULL}
};
msgval = tvb_get_xyz(tvb,
offset);
proto_tree_add_uint_format(tree,
hf_proto_msg, tvb, offset, len, msgval, "%s", val_to_str(msgval, msg_vals,
"Unknown %d"));

Thanks Chris but I can't get the
value_string to be outputted. Is there a way to tell the proto_tree_add_xxx_format()function to just output
the value_string and nothing else?
Thanks,
Martin

Have a look at section 1.6.2 of doc/README.developer or look at epan/proto.h. There are many functions of the form, “proto_tree_add_xxx_format()” that should enable you to display fields however you wish.

When I display a field, can I have it display as
follows: "Name of Message (42)" instead of like this:
"Message Value:
Name of Message (42)? I have another tree that encompasses these fields
and I have no need to describe the field any further. I was
think of just using a space but then I would have a random colon. In other
words I want to just output the value_string. Appreciate any advice.
