Is there a way of exporting my fmp7 file that has embedded pictures to access or excel?

Every pathic attempt I have made will not export the images "container fields can not be exported" and my client only has Windows system no FMP so it has to be access or excel.

There are over 2400 images in the file so I desprately need to find a way of doing this without re-entering the whole project. I am mac based so access is not an option and excel keeps crashing with the massive file size.

I would suggest maybe using a product like QuickKeys to automate the manual process of grabbing the picture from the source database in filemaker and switch to the destination database and insert/paste it into access. While this is a bit more time consuming, if the source and destination databases have the same found datasets that are sorted in the same sequential order, it should make your life a bit easier.
