kaddressbook...groups?...import from MS outlook?

hello, i got two questions in regards to kaddressbook.

1) can i make groups for my contacts? i want to seperate my personal contacts from my work contacts.

2) my work uses outlook for email. when i create an email without outlook, i can click on the "to" button and select people from a list to send the email to. how can i export that list and import it into kaddressbook (preferably into a group called "my work" or something).

thanks for the help...=)

When editing a contact (or creating) the general tab has a selector at the bottom corresponding to the group of the contact (Select Categories). This way you can have multiple groups per contact.

You can then choose which groups to display by using the filter at the top right hand corner of kaddressbook main display page.

About the second question, kaddressbook can import MS Exchange Personal Address Book Files (*.pab), so if you can export with outlook to that file, or a csv (comma separated value) you would be able to import them.
