I have editing rights for other persons contacts. I know how to import into
my own contacts, but how do I import into these other persons contacts
without being on their machine.

If you can see their contacts folder, just open it, select the contents
(CTRL-A) and use Edit>Copy to Folder to move it to your folder.

This is the first time you mentioned Excel. Export your Contacts to a CSV
file so you can see what format Outlook wants to see. Then edit the Excel
spreadsheet so that it looks just like the CSV format, with the same
headings and save it to a CSV. Import that CSV.
