Happy it worked out :)

Yep, it can be confusing at first, but once you get your head wrapped
around it, it's a really powerful system. I've dug up some bookmarks
about the GtkTree(View|Model|Store) and its Model/View/Controller
approach. They might help you understand the big picture
- a short overview:

- and as noted on that page, Tim Müller's tutorial:
http://scentric.net/tutorial/
This one uses C, but is still very informative, even for a python
programmer.

There's also a lot of information in section 13 of the pygtk faq:
