Default Lost contacts while dragging and dropping

Using Outlook 2003, I needed to create a Distribution List using my
co-workers Contacts. The only way I could see of making a Distribution List
using her Contacts was to drag and drop all her contacts into my Contacts
folder and then importing them from there to the Distribution List.

While dragging and dropping contacts from her Contacts folder (visible on my
Outlook under Other Contacts) to mine, Outlook encountered an error and had
to close. I was in the middle of dragging quite a few contacts, and now that
I have restarted Outlook, the Contacts seem to be gone. They are neither in
her Contacts folder nor in mine. Could they possibly have gotten deleted
because they were in between folders at the time of the error? Is there any
way to find them again?
