Patrick wolf's apexlib_tabform is misbehaving

Question

Hi Fellow APEX developers,
I'm trying to implemented a 'logical delete' functionality in APEX 3.1, i.e. mark a record as deleted by updating a a database table column but not phyically delete it. I have a tabular form with default row selector which I am trying to interogate using the code below.
The code below is copied and amended from Patrick Wolfe's web site. It belongs to a APEX On-submit- After Computations and Validations process and is called by a new manually created Delete button.
The update statement is not being executed at all. The process is being executed when the button is pressed I've checked in Debug.
I hope someone can shed some light on this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Austin

BEGIN
FOR v_index IN 1 .. ApexLib_TabForm.getRowCount LOOP
IF ApexLib_TabForm.hasRowChanged(v_index) THEN
IF apexlib_tabform.isrowselectorchecked(v_index) THEN
v_sales_contact_id := APEXLIB_TABFORM.nv('SALES_CONTACT_ID'
,v_index);
UPDATE sales_contact sc
SET sc.termination_date = SYSDATE
WHERE sc.operator_id = v_sales_contact_id;
END IF;
END IF;
END LOOP;
END;

Hi All,
From my investigations the arrays used in apexlib_tabform are not being initialised when I set a row for deletion using (the default row selector).
I've also googled and searched the web for apexlib_tabform entries and found the following : http://www.inside-oracle-apex.com/2006/12/drop-in-replacement-for-v-and-nv.html
I've followed the instructions on the url above and still no success..
If anybody has encountered this issue please let me know how you resolved them.

Austin
