I have two different address list I use at work, one for in office address
list called "Global address list" and one custom that I have made myself.
When I compose a new email and click on "To:" the default list that shows up
is the in office address list. Can I make the default me my custom list?
Also, if I type in the first 4 letter of an email address, it will
automatically complete the full email. But if it is an email address from
my custom list, it will not auto-complete. I don't use the office
emails very often. Is there a way to make my default be the custom address
list? thanks

Then you should be able to go to Tools > Services > Outlook Address Book and
look at its Properties. Is there not an Addressing Tab on which you can
select which folder to display first?
