Re: [Evolution] interfacing witn openoffice



Des,
Thanks for your reply. It simply doesn't. In the window (Wizard-> Adress
data source -> Other external data source (choice: Mozilla, LDAP, other)
-> settings I can choose from many different choices (LDAP, Mozilla,
dBase, Adabas, JDBC, MySQL, ODBC, Oracle, Spreadsheet, Text,
Thunderbird) but no Evolution. I have posted the same question on the OO
user-list but till now no response.Maybe I have to post in on the
developers list. But If there is a method to export to MySQL my problem
is also solved. But as I don't know the format of the contacts database
in Evolution I cannot write an exporter (e.g. to comma-delimited
text-file) and I don't know if one exists.
You maybe have some ore information?

Can anybody tell me why evo 2.2.3 (my current version) doesn't interface
with openoffice?
Is it an openoffice thing or an evolution thing (as I saw that the
format of the contacts database is changed from the format of 1.4 which
worked with Oo 1.1)).
In the "create database" window when choosing a database format
Evolution is vanished. As it is very handy (as translating the Evolution
database to a MySQL table is not easy (short of retyping everything!))
to get your mail addresses (for letters) from Evolution.
Has anybody a clue?

OpenOffice.org 2.0 is supposed to be able to handle Evo 2.x contacts,
but I haven't tested it myself.
