If you're using the "message" built-in, it gets displayed at the very bottom of the screen, and may be overwritten by hints, etc. Try adding a PAUSE after MESSAGE - it should pop up an alert that says "please acknowledge" and you'll be able to see your message.

Another thing to try is run the form in debug mode (click on the little centipede-like button on the toolbar) and then set a breakpoint in your trigger - that will confirm whether it's being fired...
