Disableing the Write Conflict Error

I have a form that adds and edits data and is accessed by two users. The most current change is to be saved EVERY time but users are sick of the "Write Conflict" message as they always select "Save Record" - can this message be disabled or After Update code written that always saves this record without the message?
I hope my request is not too obscure - any thoughts would be appreciated.

The write conflict is legitimate and is doing its job!
It would appear that the 2 users are accessing the same record at the same time and editing the record content.
If the form is opened twice on the same record and there are changes in both forms which record are you going to save????
It would be safer to check that a record is not being used before allowing it to be opened - this way no conflict can be generated.
