Whoa. So the InDesign file *is* the database? No original source for all that info?

Nothing comes to mind, sorry. I would think that exporting that content to a text file, and then using some sort of GREP and AppleScript fo copy the text to a tab-delimited file, would be the way to go. You might ask on the InDesign Scripting forum here: https://forums.adobe.com/community/indesign/indesign_scripting.
