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? Joep
