Richard,
Thanks for your response. What if I wanted to store a fair amount of text related to the line in the list? I've been experimenting with that idea but it seems to truncate the text especially if there are returns in the text. Maybe what I need to do is:
a.) Use separate text files and store the filename in the list using the technique you described
or
b.) Use the altSQLite plugin and use a database table which may make more sense
Basically I want to be able to parse XML files into usable pieces of information that would be linked to a line in a list.

When I need to store non-visible info that related to specific lines in a list, I often just put that info on the same line in the list with a tab character separating it from the stuff I want to see. Then I can set the tabStops to some number that will slide it out of view, so I keep my data all in one placed but without having all of it visible.
