I had actually come up a with a similar solution but I was hoping for a way to
let users know that someone else was editing a record so that they would not
have to waste time editing it and then have to refresh and try to edit it again.

As suggested this is normally handled at the change time. Put a date stamp
in the record, when person 2 tries to commit the changes the data the record
was last changed will be greater than when it is opened, hence they cant
commit.
