Outlook undelete contacts

is there some easy way to undelete contacts? why doesn't outlook just have a
folder under the default personal folders for contacts? how much easier
would it make it to just recover from an accidental delete and chose the item
and move it back to the folder, without retyping; or am i doing something
wrong?

this is in reference to 2003 outlook

sorry, maybe i didn't make it clear, i know that the contacts were deleted
into the deleted items folder, what is the quickest and easiest was to
undelete or put them back into the contacts list again. they were sent to
the folder by accident, how do you retrieve them?

what i stated was if their was a hirearchy folder structure (outlook2003)
you could just select these contacts and send them back, or if there was a
feature like system restore for just outlook (its own seperate restore
feature) i know of pfbackup, so please don't comment on it

why don't they provide a undo when you erase contacts by accident?

thank you but i've figured out to hold and drag the deleted contacts to the
bottom of the screen on the contact button, then while holding to drag to the
contact button up on the screen to open the folder

*this is awkward, that is why i was wondering what was the fastest way to
undelete or recover w/o using pfbackup (takes too long for a few contacts)

Drag them from Deleted Items back into the desired folder.

If you realize you deleted them by mistake immediately after you did it, you
can use the Edit | Undo Delete command in your Contacts folder.
