oracle forms question

Have this code

select count(*) into v_count
from day_off_sched
where schedule_code = :day_off_sched.schedule_code;
If v_count > 0 then
msgbox.show('Schedule Error ', 'The Schedule you entered already exixts.', 'OK');
       :day_off_sched.schedule_code := null;
       raise form_trigger_failure;
Else

go_item('day_off_sched.description');
End if;
-----------
I want this code to fire only on inserting record . not when we query records .
I have this code on key-enter of the schedule code.

I tried the code in when-create-record of the block but did not fire the error.
My code is

Declare

v_count number;

Begin

select count(*) into v_count
from day_off_sched
where schedule_code = :day_off_sched.schedule_code;

If v_count > 0 then

msgbox.show('Schedule Error ', 'The Schedule you entered already exixts.', 'OK');
       :day_off_sched.schedule_code := null;
       raise form_trigger_failure;
Else

go_item('day_off_sched.description');
End if;
End;

if new record create didn't work, did you try when new record instance?

when-new-record-instance did not work either.
