Default add contact to a selected contact folder from an open message

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

Current versions of Outlook provide an option to "Move to Folder" when you
save the Contact Record. I have no idea whether Outlook 97 did. No one uses
it or should.
