You are welcome.
That's a rather wide open question.
My question would be what aspects of the entire ordering/order filling process could be done with DBman better than some other script or visa versa?
For the html file, unless you literally have just 3 items to sell, it would seem more efficient to enter items into a database and have a script generate the required html for the order form. Dbman does this very well using various MODs.
In terms of processing the form data, and the various calculations that I see in the hacked script you provided, it "probably" could be incorportated into a DBman install either as a call to a separate script or as a sub within the script. I did notice that the "other" script seems to be handling the formatting of the database differently.
I take it that the other script is just a shopping cart and not as full featured as DBman and that is why you want to integrate them? Or is it a software cost issue?
