I'm sorry, but what you ask is completely unnecessary. Ubuntu simply is not shipped with the drivers for OO Word to access the Evolution contacts to use as database info, such as for addresses in letters. These files are available on Synaptic and they work... IF you can find out that you need them and that they are available. The issue is: these files should be included in the Ubuntu package by default. Why: Because Evolution is the contact database by default and OO Word is the default word processor. For them to not be coordinated is an error. A beginner, newcomer or even moderately skilled user of Ubuntu can now only find these files by some extraordinary searching.
