How are you implementing the table?   Which helper are you using?
Normally you should just return without setting a value, and the
agent will recognise this as the end of the table column, and move
on to the next object.

How are you testing this?  What is the *exact* request you are making?
Is the helper being called in exactly the same way each time?
Check the 'table_info->indexes' and 'table_info->colnum' values
for each call.
