I am using Ethereal on Win2K.  I tried to add a relative time column to the
capture by:

1)  Opening "Edit-->Preferences-->Columns"
2)  Hiliting "Time" and clicking "New"
3)  Hiliting the new "Time" entry and clicking on "Column Format"
4)  Selecting "Relative Time", applying, saving, and exiting.

When I start the trace, I see two time columns, but both are absolute
time(actually, the Column Format display says "Command Line Specified"?
Once the trace has started I can change the time format via
"Display-->Options--> and selecting "Seconds Since Previous Frame".
However, this changes both columns.  Does anyone know how to get two
simultaneous time displays with absolute and relative time in a trace?
Also, I'd like to know if there's any way to display total bytes captured
(from start of trace) at each frame?  Thanks very much for any
help/suggestions anyone can provide!  I'm really enjoying using Ethereal.
