I'm stuck. The problem I have is that I maintain my home address
book as a spreadsheet in calc; my mobile phone software can copy
information to the phone's memory from any of outlook
express/outlook/lotus notes - but nothing more accessible like csv
(thanks Nokia :-| ). So windows address book looks like what I'm
stuck with as regards the nokia s/ware.

Outlook Express can import/export a CSV file so: Calc <-> csv <->
Outlook Express <-> Nokia or have I missed something?

But thanks for the advice - I'll look at OE.

You mentioned Outlook Express: " ... my mobile phone software can copy
information to the phone's memory from any of outlook express/outlook/lotus
notes ... " so I naturally assumed ...
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 :-( )
Also contact Nokia to modify their software to support other formats
such as Thunderbird.
