Re: [Evolution] Exporting Contacts?



hi,

Export as CSV format had some bugs and they were fixed

which does not at all answer andrew's question about the "how". :-(

generally, the shell commands need love, e.g. they only work for the
primary addressbook, and "evolution-addressbook-clean" has been
*totally* unusable since version 2.0 (see the patch [hint, hint!] at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=307513#c3).

How do I go about exporting my Contacts as a CSV list, please? 
Running Evo 2.2.3 Mandriva 2006

you have to run evolution 2.4.x for it, yeah (if you're interested, see
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=269870 for the reason).

andrew, locate the file "evolution-addressbook-export" on your system,
it should be in /%GNOMEDIR%/libexec/evolution/2.6/ (you can also e.g.
use "locate" to find that binary).

change to that directory, and run "./evolution-addressbook-export
--output=/home/user/filename --format=csv" then, should work.

cheers,
andre
