Default Change folders of contacts from Express to Outlook

I have 20 folders of contacts in my Outlook Express address book that I have
always used, and now would like to switch to Outlook. I need basic
instructions on how to copy each folder of contacts over to Outlook 2003
version.

You can only import the main Contacts Folder from OE using Outlook's Import
Wizard.

True. However, they can manually swap the contents of their main contacts
folder in OE with the others, thereby eventually importing all of the
contacts.

Of course. I was thinking they'd figure that part out. Probably not, huh?
