If you're using a grid for data entry you're playing with fire right there. Grids are fine for data display but if you allow updates in them you are likely to find yourself wrestling with an unmanageable beast. Jim Booth (then) put it perfectly: the grid is the devil's own control.
The general approach as far as I know has been to include an Edit button on the form with the grid and jump to a modal CRUD form with the current record pointer. It's very little extra work for the user and as a developer you can control it.
You may not have the luxury of rewriting that part of your application. If that is the case I do not know the answer to your specific question. With it being something that occurs in a multi user environment it is not going to be easy to replicate, much less diagnose.
