There's an idiom where you use one query to select all the (financial) transactions in a batch, but there's so much variation in how you need to process each row, that you can't express it all in one SQL query. So you use a variety of little queries during the processing of each row of the main query. The result of the fold in your doquery could be, say, a record of batch totals. - Tom
