Personally, I don't particularly like the way this particular helper
handles individual columns. It's fine(ish) for tables that are purely
manipulated by the agent itself, but I find it cumbersome for anything
used "externally" (be that importing data from elsewhere, or working
with the contents of the table).
My personal preference is to use the template structure generated
by "mib2c -c mib2c.tabledata.conf {table}"
This defines a dedicated data structure for the contents of a row
of the table, but allows the agent to deal with all aspects of holding
the table as a collection of rows.
There are several examples of this in the agent source code.
But see the project FAQ, which has several entries discussing
the various table helpers.

The "mib2c" tool will generate suitable template code,
typically including a data structure to hold the contents of a row.
You can tweak this data structure to match your requirement,
but would also need to make similar adjustments to the
code that processed the corresponding fields.
Try running
mib2c -c mib2c.tabledata.conf {table}
or
mib2c -S cache=1 -c mib2c.tabledata.conf {table}
and see whether the output is a suitable starting point for you.
