Default Check Names Order

I would like Outlook to Check Names from my Contacts before the GAL. Can I
control this order? How?
Thanks

Open the Address Book interface in Outlook, click ToolsOptions and specify
the search order.

Thanks Russ. I noticed that the shared Contacts, to which I have read
access, do not appear in this list. Can Check Names not look in a shared
Contacts folder?

Don't know. That's an Exchange issue. Mercifully, I've never had to run
against Exchange. Someone who has will answer you shortly, I'm sure.

No, not easily. See http://slipstick.com/contacts/oloabpf.htm#displayother
for the method.
