1.- Add a calculation field:
You create a field with all the data to export delimited with slash this way:
where 'Firstname', 'Surname'...should be replaced with your database fields.
or if you don't use optional fields, just Firstname & "\" & Surname & "\" & Company & "\" & Email & "\\\\\\\\\\"
2.- Create the export script:
Then create a script and assign it to a button. The script should send an AppleEvent to MaxBulk.
3.- Define AppleEvent:
Something like:
Send Apple Event ["MaxBulk Mailer", "MaxB", "DATA"]
