Re: [android-developers] Getting contact's address

See these documents for descriptions of what you can get out of an
Android 2.0 contacts database and how:

http://d.android.com/reference/android/provider/ContactsContract.Data.html
http://d.android.com/reference/android/provider/ContactsContract.CommonDataKinds.StructuredPostal.html

If you are building an APK that must work with both pre-Eclair and
Eclair contacts data, consider writing something like this:

http://code.google.com/p/android-business-card/source/browse/#svn/trunk/android-business-card/BusinessCard/src/com/example/android/businesscard

I hope these help.
