Restore Contacts From Old Backup - Outlook 2002

I somehow corrupted my Outlook 2002 contacts list today while
attempting to install a cell phone manager. I have only a few folders
left in the list. I have a backup .pst file that is a couple of weeks
old that has the complete contacts list, but it is missing a lot of
important e-mails. Is there any way to get the contacts list from the
backup file, but still keep the e-mails in the current .pst file?

Thanks Russ. I didn't know the .pst file was even viewable. I guess
I did it the hard way. I exported the contacts folder to a file, then
changed back to the current .pst file with the corrupted contacts
folder, and imported the folder back into Outlook. Voila! The
contacts list is back and running and I have all my current e-mails.
