1) How can I add some extra fields to Kontact? (am using Kontact
vers 1.0 in suse 9.2)

You can add extra fields to the contact editor, but they won't appear
in the CSV import dialog yet.

Thanks! But how do I add the extra fields? I tried importing a whole large bunch of fields in a csv file, and could not see many of them in the Kontact (contacts) 'Modify View' choices at all? Only the fields I could allocate could later be chosen for use.


2) Templates would seem possibly useful - is this correct?

Hmm, yes?

3) how would I get or create a template?

Load a csv file into the csv import dialog, assign the columns and
click the 'Save as template...' button.

Great, thanks :-)


4) is this the best forum for these questions? (Which others
please?)

Yes
