I am running Office XP and I'm having trouble importing some contacts. For
whatever reason, the original file folder I'm importing from is called SE
Contacts, so when I import it, the info doesn't get imported into the main
Contacts folder, but it's own folder called SE Contacts. How do I get those
addresses, etc, into the main Contacts folder? Any help in doing so would
be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
 
Before starting the Import Wizard, make sure that the main Contacts folder
is selected.
On the last step of the import wizard, ensure that the radio button is
selected next to "Import items into the current folder."

From where are you importing? If from a PST, don't import. Just open the
other PST with File>Open>Outlook Data File. Then open the contacts folder
containing the contacts you wish to move, select them all with CTRL-A,
right-click the selection and choose Copy. Specify the desired Contacts
folder as the destination. When the copy completes, right-click the added
PST and choose Close.
