I haven't looked to hard at the SE product but LINKWAY for HP3000 allows
you to set the isolation level via the PC configuration screens and via the
ODBC api. The LINKWAY server can also be configured to force the client to
only use a particular isolation level. This along with the read write /
read only and many other configuration options can be controlled at
program,  user or logon group/account basis.

As far as LINKWAY is concerned I haven't a clue about how it would react to
this scenario but I will ask the people in development to have a look and I
will let you know.
