Just to nitpick your representation a little bit, columnB/etc... are
supercolumnB/etc..., key1/etc... are column1/etc..., and you can probably
omit valueA/valueD designations entirely, it would still be understood.

Columns in Cassandra always have timestamps, you can't omit them.

Can you post a snippet of the code you are using and the error you get?
