Hello

I'm tryng to use data from Evolution.contact in openoffice 2.2 / 2.3 
With ubuntu 7.04 / 7.10
Package openoffice.org-evolution give the source EvolutionLocal in OOo 
(only on read)

In base or base explorer(F4) I can access to data contact from my adress 
book "personnel"
But I meet some limitations:
• It is impossible to sort data by columns, the buton sort ascending of 
toolbar data base is inactive.
• It is impossible to apply a filter
• The result of querry SQL = SELECT "file_as" FROM "Personal" AS 
"Personal" ORDER BY "file_as" ASC is not ordered
• SELECT "file_as" FROM "Personal" AS "Personal" WHERE ( ( "org" IS NOT 
NULL ) ) give no result

All these limitations prevents to use all the possibilitties given by 
OOo . It a pity because a sorted an addresbook fully operationnal will 
be beneficial to Ubuntu.

I've build an odt to Bypass some limitation with oobasic(not optimal, 
but functional), I think to put it on documentation in openoffice.fr but 
before my questions are:

- Do you confirm these problems and did you know any solution ?
- Can we expect evolutions in the futur ?

Bye
