In addition to Sam's answer:

If it is one off import, you can use csv or tab separated export from FileMaker and import to the target db.

You can also export xml and use XSLT if you need a particular format.

There are many options here.

• Sync data between FileMaker and another SQL database using 360Works MirrorSync (I am one of the authors).

• Push data to the SQL database from FileMaker using a scheduled / triggered script combined with ODBC or JDBC calls. (I also wrote a JDBC plugin for FileMaker, don't mean to sound like an advertisement here).

• Use ESS in FileMaker, which stores your FileMaker in some other SQL databases. Might require some major restructuring of an existing database.
