I'm pretty noob with 3d-maths or even 3d-commands of DB (been playing with basic since 1991 though )

If I have 2 objects. A sphere and a box.

The box is rotating (at the middle) and the sphere is moving on top of the box. The sphere would rotate as the box rotates (when the box is upside down, the sphere is too).

Is there any easy command in DBPro to "stick" the sphere on the box?

Check the attachment image if you have hard time to understand what I mean.

GLUE OBJECT TO LIMB Object Number, Second Object, Limb Number

The original object starts with limb 0, so glueing another object to it start from limb 1.

Also check out the documents on the LIMB commands.

When using glue object to limb <Obj> , <TargetObj> , <TargetLimb> Beware that the positions and rotations of the object being glued are then relative to the object it's glued to. Here's an example using it:
