Perhaps assumptions wouldn't be necessary if the initial question were clearer :-) Anyway, I'll concoct a perl script to munge my address book (my headers are all non-OE compatible of course - very tedious running through the OE import mapping dialogue every time). Pushing my luck like fury though - is there a way from the command line of opening a calc file and outputting a csv file? I'm not up-to-speed on OOo macro programming (not much need for it, and what seems from here an impossibly steep learning curve to get going :-( ) -- various incoming sites blocked because of spam; see http://www.scottsonline.org.uk for a list and openpgp crypto key (key fingerprint 2ACC 9F21 5103 F68C 7C32 9EA8 C949 81E1 31C9 1364) [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mike Scott, Harlow, Essex, England --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
