ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for validating a survey database, preferably before any user requests are submitted to the survey database. This may be accomplished by analyzing the survey database and identifying those portions of the survey database that are potentially problematic, given the expected user request types. The present invention may then notify the user of any potential problems in the survey database, and/or warn the user to view certain results with caution.
