viewing a shell's enviromental variables from OUTSIDE that shell

Hi,
A database system which we use here at Furman has many different
'accounts'.
To get into one of these accounts, the users cd into a certain directory
and start the db client.
Which directory they're in when they start up the client determines which
account they go into.
Is there any way I can see what the user's current directory is other than
watching them log in?

(Is there a way to view a shell's enviromental variables from outside that
shell?)

Thanks!
