If you create a field called [Record ID# mirror] as a formula numeric field with a formula of
[Record ID#]
then unlike [Record ID#] it will be available to use in form rules.
The Record ID# will be blank when the record is in ADD mode. So you should be able to add to the rule that the [Record ID# mirror] is not blank, as that would mean the record does exists so the user must now be in EDIT mode, not ADD mode.
