[ic] Writing informaton to database

[Steven Potter]

I would like to write some of the users order information to a different 
table in the database for statistical use.  What is the best way to 
approch this?  I know I could do it with a [query sql=insert into ....] 
but that doesn't strike me as very secure.  What other methods would you 
suggest?  I searched the archives and didn't find anything, but if you 
know of a thread, point me there.

Thanks
