WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM while entering new values; POST-QUERY (which uses the same code as WVI) while querying existing values. As both triggers use the same code, you could move it into a procedure which will then be called by both triggers.

As of the rest of your question: that looks like a master-detail form. Is it? If so, you should have used Data Block Wizard which would create relationship/triggers/procedures to correctly maintain that relationship. Once you do that, there's nothing else you should do - Forms will take care about everything.
