Problem with record locking - forms w/subforms

My Access database is "split" so that tables are in one file on the network, and there is copy of application at each user's computer, which is linked to these tables.

I have the various forms in the application set to "edited record" locking, so that only one person at a time can edit a record. The problem is, my main form has a subform on it. It appears that while one person is editing (or deleting?) the main record, somebody can be editing records on the sub-form.

So my question is...is there a way to simultaneously lock all subforms/records belonging to a main form/record?
 
lock the subform by locking each field of the subform ? Hope this helps.
