What would be the purpose behind the export?

Surprisingly in the early days of QuickBase there was a command to do this:
?act=doexport&filetype=oif
I think oif stood for "OneBase Interchange Format" where OneBase was the predecessor product name for what became QuickBase. If you try that command today the response is "OIF format is no longer supported."
That said there is a relatively easy way to get an external structural representation of forms and form rules. However, I am not going to reveal it without understanding what your purpose is. There is a good chance your proposed usage may violate QuickBase's terms of service.

If you have only one application I would follow Mark's advice and park the application. If you have many applications there probably is a way to extract the form definitions and restore it using script but there are going to be other aspects of the application that would be difficult to export and no guarantee they would re-import later if QuickBase changed its structure.
