Default Outlook o7 contacts disappeared after syncing with phone

I am running Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007, English version and
after I synced my T-mobile wing (which I have done several times before) My
contacts disappeared. I put several new contacts in saved and closed, deleted
the contacts from my phone, then hooked my phone up to sync. Afterward all of
the contacts from my phone and outlook except for the 6 new contacts were
gone. How can I restore contacts. Did a system restore that did not work and
it will not undo the restore. I have not backed up the address book because
we changed from XP to 07 last month and I just finished putting in the
addresses today. The only two copies I had were on the phone and outlook 07.
Please help

Outlook plays no part in synchronization. If you lost data via
synchronization, the loss is permanent. Restore the data from your most
recent backup. If you have no backup, learn how to use a computer.

1) your rude.
2) Outlook is why I sync (only reason)
3) loss not permanent, has been restored (if you knew how to use a computer
you would know to look in the deleted files)
4) info just entered, ergo no backup yet (that has been resolved as well)

Then synchronization did not cause the problem. When the user deletes data,
it goes to the Deleted Items Folder.
