In MWS, go to File->Export or just CTRL+E and there are some formats, like HTML.
Text Spoiler is, unfortunately, not one of them.
The easiest way to do something programmatically (somehow this doesn't seem to be the correct word here XD) using plain text is exporting to CSV.
heh I am trying to do it programically, but i need to know how to read the mwBase format.
The reason I am doing this is that I have tried the methods you mentioned, but MWS dies on me, saying that it runs out of memory. I suspect this is due to the application and not that I am really running out of memory. (I tried to export all cards from all the sets, using its export function).
Sorry sorry, I forgot to post that the format of at least .mwBase, .dat and .mwInventory files is really CDS, some database format from Delphi.
I haven't looked into it, but I hope the format is specified somewhere in the Delphi homepage...
I posted this same thing on the MWSData forums.
Right now you can mess a little with CDS files with either Base Editor by Brainwad, or CDS Explorer by Dave Bhatia.
Base editor is somewhere on the MWS.com forums.
CDS Explorer is supposed to come with Delphi distros, but Nate's Proxy Generator (in the Resources file) includes it as a misc tool.
Edit:
Or should this be under technical support??

No sign of source code for anything...
