Description Frank Schönheit 2005-03-31 12:42:51 UTC 
Since OOo 2.0, we support accessing Thunderbird address books. For instance, the
wizard which appears with File|New|Database offers to connect to a TB address book.

Unfortunately, the wizard used to set up an address book data source
(File|Templates|Address Book Source) does not support this.

We should enhance the wizard with access to TB address books, as this is an
important new feature in 2.0, and TB is gaining more and more importance in our
user base.
Comment 1 Frank Schönheit 2005-03-31 12:43:40 UTC 
correction: The wizard in question can be opened with
  File | Wizards | Address Data Source ...
(mixed this up with another issue)

OOo 1.9.95 crashes when trying to connect to thunderbird adressbook under linux
using the [settings]- button in the wizard and choosing "thunderbird adress book"
Since this is a really basic feature, this needs to be done befor OOo release.
KAdressbook support is mandatory as well.

wizard works so far, that a new address book is been created based on a
thunderbid address book, but the tables are empty (no addresses at all) In
Thunderbird all addresses still apear.
(SuSE Linux 9.3 - TB version 1.0 (20041207))
