Hi,

I wrote this using this example [doc.qt.nokia.com]

  1. Rectangle {
  2.      id: topItem
  3.      width: 360
  4.      height: 640
  5.      x: 0
  6.      y: 0
  7.  
  8.      Contact {
  9.          id: myContact
  10.          Name {
  11.              firstName:"John"
  12.              lastName:"Gates"
  13.          }
  14.  
  15.          EmailAddress {
  16.              emailAddress:"john@example.com"
  17.          }
  18.          EmailAddress {
  19.              emailAddress:"mygmailaccount@gmail.com"
  20.          }
  21.  
  22.          address.street:"53 Mysteet St"
  23.          address.locality: "My City"
  24.          address.region: "My Region"
  25.          address.postcode:"1111"
  26.          address.country:"My Country"
  27.          address.subTypes:[Address.Postal, Address.Domestic]
  28.          address.postOfficeBox:"1111"
  29.  
  30.          Nickname {
  31.              nickname:"John"
  32.          }
  33.  
  34.          PhoneNumber {
  35.              number: "1111111111"
  36.              subTypes:[PhoneNumber.Mobile]
  37.          }
  38.  
  39.          PhoneNumber {
  40.              number: "2222222222"
  41.              subTypes:[PhoneNumber.Fax]
  42.          }
  43.  
  44.          PhoneNumber {
  45.              number: "3333333333"
  46.              subTypes:[PhoneNumber.Landline]
  47.          }
  48.  
  49.          Component.onCompleted: {
  50.              // create new phone number
  51.              var newNumber = Qt.createQmlObject('import QtMobility.contacts 1.1; PhoneNumber { number: "1234567890" }',
  52.                  myContact, "newNumber");
  53.  
  54.              myContact.addDetail( newNumber )
  55.              myContact.save();
  56.  
  57.              for( var i = 0; i < myContact.phoneNumbers.length; ++i ) {
  58.                  console.debug( "Phone number: " + myContact.phoneNumbers[i].number )
  59.              }
  60.          }
  61.      }
  62.  
  63.  
  64.      Column {
  65.          spacing:4
  66.  
  67.          //access the same property with different syntaxes
  68.          Text { text:"Name(from property name):" + myContact.name.firstName + " " + myContact.name.lastName }
  69.          Text { text:"Name(from detail type):" + myContact.detail(ContactDetail.Name).firstName + " " + myContact.name.lastName }
  70.          Text { text:"Name(from detail name):" + myContact.detail("Name").firstName + " " + myContact.name.lastName }
  71.  
  72.          Text { text:"Address:" + myContact.address.street + " " + myContact.address.locality + " " + myContact.address.region + " " + myContact.address.postcode }
  73.  
  74.          //If a contact contains multiple details for the same detail type, you can access them with the dynamic property names.
  75.          Text { text:"How many email accounts?:" + myContact.emails.length }
  76.          Text { text:"Email[0]:" + myContact.emails[0].emailAddress }
  77.  
  78.          Text { text:"How many phone numbers?:" + myContact.phoneNumbers.length }
  79.          Text { text:"phone number[0]:" + myContact.phoneNumbers[0].number }
  80.          Text { text:"phone number[1]:" + myContact.phoneNumbers[1].number }
  81.          Text { text:"phone number[2]:" + myContact.phoneNumbers[2].number }
  82.      }
  83.  }

See Component.onCompleted . It should work everywhere you can access contancts from ContactManager.
I hope this will be usefull for you :)

Jepp, I think the main thing that a someone new to QML/Javascript/QT is that this Qt.createQmlObject command is the way to create the QML Objects needed.
