  * Sorting will now work if fullname is identical on some entries
  *
  * Revision 1.7  2002/11/13 15:02:46  eilers
  * Small Bug in sorted fixed
  *
  * Revision 1.6  2002/11/13 14:14:51  eilers
  * Added sorted for Contacts..
  *
  * Revision 1.5  2002/11/01 15:10:42  eilers
  * Added regExp-search in database for all fields in a contact.

  * Revision 1.2  2002/10/07 17:34:24  eilers
  * added OBackendFactory for advanced backend access
  *
  * Revision 1.1  2002/09/27 17:11:44  eilers
  * Added API for accessing the Contact-Database ! It is compiling, but
  * please do not expect that anything is working !
