Yes you are right... sorry, Doh :)

But as Owen points out, do it the way he suggests, generally I would use:

        GtkTreeSelection *selection = NULL;
        GtkTreeModel *model = NULL;
        GtkTreeIter iter;

        if((selection =
GTK_TREE_SELECTION(gtk_tree_view_get_selection(mytreeview))) == NULL)
        {
                g_warning("selection is NULL");
                return FALSE;
        }       

        gtk_tree_selection_get_selected(selection, &model, &iter);

        .
        .
        .
