Form validation error when the Table is empty.

Question

Hello Gurus,
I am getting form validation error as soon as the popup is rendered to submit new row.
I am using the this popup to add new row in the table and this is happening only when there no data in the table but it works fine when there is some data in the table.
Screen shot: [http://picpaste.com/adf_error-BAdP8Thv.JPG]
Is there any way can I defer this error till I submit the form. ( which works fine when there is some data in table )
Thanks
Abhijeet
