Regarding "slow export function" for multiple scrolling fields, Raymond 
responds:

OK, here is a quick, dirty, and admittedly untested idea. You need a quick
export. That means that handling each item of data individually is not
practical. 

While we think of rows and columns within the stack, there is nothing to say
that we have to have that format when we export the information. Take a look
at a MS Word or Excel doc in a straight text editor. You don't see the file
the way the program presents it. 

So think about each field as a line, with tabs replacing the returns, and 26
lines to the export content. In this case, you could do the following. 

repeat with x = 1 to 26 
  put replacetext(bg fld ("c"&x),return,tab) into line x of content 
 end repeat 
open file filePath 
write content  to file filePath 
close file filePath
