Look on the main Outlook menu, not the menu in the address book.

Got it - openned "tools", then "Customize" selected "Commands" tab, and in
the File category found "Import and Export" and selected. Don't know why this wasn't in the first place. But this worked. I then imported a contact files quite easily.

You go! I had the same trouble -- got all the same unhelpful advice, and
your post allowed me to fix the problem. Many thanks.
