You could write a startup procedure in the application the user runs that verifies the known database structure against one hardcoded in the application. This can be done using the ODBC / JDBC, but you'll need to contact the application developer. For as far as I know most programming languages offer the capability to request the existing table structure of a database.

Another option is that all applications access the data through views. And after every schema change an automated check on database level is performed to see if all the views still work. If not you alter the views slightly, making sure they return the expected data. This way you will only have to change the applications when they need additional data from your database scheme.

However the true question becomes rather different, why are you expecting the schema of the database to change without an update to the programming of the various applications using it. As usually a change in the database is triggered by a change in one of the programs using the data in it?
