I've tried that. But it does not work, because the table carts has no 
content of mv_username and password. If I copy userdb.txt to carts.txt, 
all the carts is stored in carts and not in userdb. That is what I want. 
But I've to have mv_username and password in the table carts before.

The next step was to use the codes like

[tmp checkcarts][data table="carts" field="password" code="[value 
mv_username]"][/tmp]
[if !scratch checkcarts]
[tmp passw][data table="userdb" field="password" code="[value 
mv_username]"][/tmp]
[calc]$Scratch->{'cartsdata'} = $Values->{'mv_username'} . "\t" . 
$Scratch->{'passw'} . "\t\t";'';[/calc]
[tag op=log file="products/carts.txt" interpolate=1 hide=1]
[scratch cartsdata]
[/tag]
[/if]

first. But are there a better solution?

Why did IC not use an extra table for that?
