Help using gtk_tree_selection_select_path()

["Noonan, Michael (DCOI)" <Michael Noonan Smithsdetection com>]

Has anyone encountered any trouble using the above gtk_tree_selection_select_path(). I have a GtkTreeView 
where I want to manually select a row in the GtkTreeView. However when I use gtk_tree_selection_select_path I 
just can't get it to work. I have the following:

path = gtk_tree_path_new_from_string( "4" );
        
gtk_tree_model_get_iter( GTK_TREE_MODEL( model ), &iter, path );
        
gtk_tree_view_expand_to_path( GTK_TREE_VIEW( tree_view ), path );
gtk_tree_view_set_cursor( GTK_TREE_VIEW( tree_view ), path, NULL, FALSE );
        
gtk_tree_selection_select_path( select, path );


I can set the cursor to the required row but I can't seem to set the selection to the row. Is there something 
that I am missing. 

Thanks, 

Mike
