Hi Guys,

Not sure whether anyone has achieved this, but is there a way of programming a script that would export data from a FileMaker table into an Excel spreasheet and then run a Macro (again using a filemaker script).

Thanking you all once again.

Can't export directly to Excel, but you can export to tab-separated text.

Can't run an Excel macro from within FMP, but if you have a Mac you could use AppleScript.

Of course, you won't be exporting formulas, just values.

On the other hand, using FMPv6 & Excel X on MacOS10.2.1, I just opened a Filemaker DB directly in Excel. Formulas were lost again; just the values got "imported". No scripts necessary.
