How can I store data from custom fields to custom tables?

Steven, I think you are looking for the save_post action, you should create the function you want to use and use the add_action function.

You can find the data from the custom fields in the $_POST array.

You don’t have to worry about the “other content”, at least if with that you are referring to the title, content, categories.
