hmm, say you have a form of 10 text boxes, you enter a sequence of numbers, one in each box, you knew the start, you knew the end, and can also make you own total of this numbers to cross check to see if the form is calculating the total. When a user logs in back and sees what they have entered is there and in all proper way.... what is there that I don't know about?
If the users do make their own totals and cross-check against it, then yes, you can have a high degree of confidence that your results are correct. I think it's more likely, though, that they're just going to trust that they are - which they're perfectly entitled to do. Nils is right, though - you're going to have this problem to a greater or lesser extent unless you use SERIALIZABLE or SNAPSHOT.
