I was able get the Add to cart working outside of the store area using the form, but I want to show the price of the item from the store database. this is link to a sample page that need to show the price: http://www.embeddedautomation.com/products/mcontrol/mcontrol.asp

Any suggestion?

Build an ASP function that allows you to pass it a product ID, have it return a price, then display that value.

Isn't there an ASP function in the productcart that I can reuse?

You may want to examine home.asp or viewcategories.asp and see what you find within the included files that those pages reference. Just search on the field name you hope to gain access to.

I needed something like you describe for a project a while back, built a module that connects to the database and returns values. I just copy it into whatever site I am buiding when I have such a need, so I don't really have a memory of where you might be able to re-use some code.
