Thanks for the quick responses guys.

Yes, I did look at RowResult but its not very obvious what its supposed to
do when dealing with a column family that consists of multiple qualifiers.
Does each column family get a single key or does each qualifier get a single
key in the entry set?

I'm sorry, I guess I could run a test and check what it does but I am
physically away from my machine which has HBase installed so I can't verify
this - so I resorted to the documentation which didn't seem too clear to me.

Thanks again,
Ishaaq
