MS office 2007 -- Adding contact from open email.

I have multiple email contact folders in MS Outlook '97. When I need to add
a contact to any but the default folder, I am not given the choice of folders
to which to add the contact. I do add then drag and drop, but that is
cumbersome and silly.

Surely there is an easier way? Seems kind of a silly oversight, otherwise
-- been standard offering in other email programs for aeons...

Would appreciate suggestions.

Thanks!

Roy
