Stopping the flow of a user in a grid with a dialog box constantly asking if you want to save or cancel your changes would, in my opinion, greatly impede the users ability to get work done. If data entry errors are created, the user will eventually fix them. If the data entry does require strict editing, I'd be inclined to not use a grid for it.
