syntax for fixed size tables within SNMP MIBS

recently checking a proprietary MIB with a MIB validator used by an SNMP
Manager, I got the following error:
 
 ERR-166  For newly-defined conceptual rows which allow the creation of
new
  object instances and/or the deletion of existing object instances,
  there should be one columnar object with a SYNTAX clause value of
  RowStatus. 

The table in question does not support creation or deletion which is why
there is no RowStatus object.
 
My questions are:
 
1. Is the error message correct if we want to support the latest SNMP
standards?
2. If we know a table has a fixed number of entries, is there a syntax
we can use to specify that rows cannot be created? Otherwise we will
have to supply a 'dummy' rowStatus attribute which seems unneccessary.
 
 
Thanks in advance for any suggestions people might have.
 
Adam Lewis.
