and if you find it there, drag it back to the Contacts Folder.

I always recommend the use of the Folder List so you can see what you're
doing.Bottom left corner of Outlook , in the Navigation Pain, click the
Folder List button. Now you can see what your actual folder structure is and
drag easilly from one folder to another.
