Ask in a programming group. Importing is always a poor choice for
transferring Outlook data, however.

Why not simply transfer the entire PST, open it in Outlook, and take what
you want from it?

You can add another file with the AddStore method, then iterate though a
contact folder of it, and copy or move found items to the default store.

Please use for programming related questions e.g.:
microsoft.public.outlook.program_vba

users can't (=won't) learn how to import contacts allthough I have
teached them it many,many times. So, I want only to make me less to
do
