How to Create a Database in Automator
In the Mac OS X operating system, the Automator application allows you to program basic workflow scripts for repetitive tasks that you do again and again. While you can add in-built commands in Automator, the Mac OS X operating system does not have a database application installed by default. Therefore, you will have to use your third-party application and the Automator "Watch Me Do" feature. Watch Me Do records your screen actions and adds those to the Automator plugin.
