Dmitry's solution is absolutely correct, I just thought you might want to know what was happening. I would guess that you have LOV validation turned on for the item. As such, forms will validate your programmatic input against the LOV. When the LOV is used, it will in turn populate every field you have column mapped, which means it updates your base table value with the same value. Forms does not know, however, that it is the same value so it marks the item as changed.
