[wellylug] Copy Evolution Contacts to CSV File

Hello

Does anyone know how to:

1.  copy the contacts from an Evolution address book to a .CSV format
file?  

2. how to edit a CSV file to remove extra fields (would OpenOffice
spreadsheet work)? 

I need the CSV file so Telecom can copy our contacts into a new mobile
phone - their usual system for doing this does not recognise our old
mobile.  

I tried using the "evolution-addressbook-export" command, but got a
"permission denied" response.  Perhaps this reflects my inexperience at
using the terminal.  Our computer runs Ubuntu Dapper.  

Thanks

Joseph
