    // Creates a number of empty rows of [rows] size for the base history table
    private Column[] createBaseColumns(int rows) {
        Column[] newColumns = new Column[3];
        newColumns[BASE_UID_COLUMN] = new LongColumn("Uid", "", new long[rows]);
        newColumns[BASE_DATETIME_COLUMN] = new StringColumn("DateTime", "", new String[rows]);
        newColumns[BASE_STATUS_COLUMN] = new StringColumn("Status", "", new String[rows]);
        return newColumns;
    }

            LongColumn uid = (LongColumn) newColumns[BASE_UID_COLUMN];
            uid.values[0] = lastIndex + 1;
            
            StringColumn date = (StringColumn) newColumns[BASE_DATETIME_COLUMN];
            date.values[0] = sqlDateTimeFormat.format(new Date());
            
            StringColumn status = (StringColumn) newColumns[BASE_STATUS_COLUMN];
            status.values[0] = import_status;     

            baseTable.addData(newColumns);
