Yes, it is a list form, so I was assuming that. I can see it has a view for new and one for edit. If it isn't used in a web part, I'm not sure how it is getting switched. There's an option in the Form Options for setting the Display View, but that won't alter the New Item / Edit Item scenario. You may want to check the list in SharePoint Designer and see if there is something there. In general I would just add a rule on Form Load - if ID is not blank, switch to Edit View. Then the New Item which is the default would open for new items, and when you open existing items (which will have an ID) the Form Load rule will switch views. I think that will work in a list form - you may want to try it on the new form you are working on. If your form is NOT a list form, but a library form instead, you may need to pick another field to determine whether it is new or an edit - probably any required field would do the trick.
