AFAIK DATABASE fields do work on Macs. As do macros with file paths & names; the 'gotcha' is that you need to have the right syntax. For example, the folder separator on a Mac is ':' rather than '\'. Fields with file paths & names don't require such things to be taken into consideration. The solution with the macro you're having trouble with may be as simple as changing:
"\EmailDataSource.doc"
to:
":EmailDataSource.doc"
