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 Tools>Options and specify
the search order.

Set the option to do so in the Address Book view: Tools > Options >

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.
