Restoring backed up contacts from an external hard drive

**Jeff** · April 28th 08, 04:03 AM posted to microsoft.public.outlook.contacts

I back up my computer on a seagate hard drive. My contacts show up as a file
on the seagate hard drive. Recently, I restored the file back on my computer
but I can't import the data back into my contacts on Outlook.
