The "price_level" is a userdb scratch, just as "dealer" is, so
you should be able to set it in the same way.  Have you checked
the userdb to see what values are being saved in there?  No use
of this value is made in the current Foundation demo, so you
shouldn't expect to see any visible signs of the scratch being
set, unless you modify the HTML, or look in the userdb table.

Columns from the userdb table are read into values when a user
logs in, and are saved when a [userdb save] call is made.
The exception to this are values marked as "scratch" which use
scratch space instead of values.  To define a userdb column
as scratch, you need to edit catalog.cfg.  The default
setting looks like this:

    UserDB default scratch "dealer price_level credit_limit"

Hope this helps.

Glad to help - there's enough scratching and hair pulling in here
at the moment. :-)
