I have a laptop that has outlook and copied the address book to a
thumbdrive how do I add it to the address book on my desk top in
Outlook?

Outlook's address book contains no data. Tell us what you really did.

I sure don't want to have to retype 326 addresses and phone numbers
and emails.
I need detailed specific instructions. I am not a computer geek but I
do know a little.

Be precise in describing what steps you have taken so we can determine what
may have gone wrong. Be sure to include your Outlook version.
