if you have SQL product (enter strsql to see it), i can sand yu some piece
of code, you 'll see that :

    - it is easy to use
    - very easy to maintain the code
    - performance are pretty nice
    - You can make total, sub total without any new piece of code..

In one word : use it if you can.
