Merging a FileMaker Pro database
You can convert a FileMaker Pro database into an AppleWorks database,
and then merge the data with an AppleWorks word processing or
spreadsheet document or frame. Use the Mail Merge script (a script is a
command that performs one action or sequence of actions).
1. Open the AppleWorks Scripts folder (in the AppleWorks 5 folder), and then
double-click the Mail Merge script icon.
2. Click FileMaker Database, select the database you want to convert, and then click
Open.
3. Click AppleWorks Document, select the AppleWorks document you want to
merge with the database data, and then click Open.
4. On the import from FileMaker Pro palette, select the fields you want in your
AppleWorks database and click Move.
5. Click Import.
The script converts your database to AppleWorks format and opens the
AppleWorks mail merge palette. You can then follow the instructions in
the previous two sections to perform the mail merge.
