Hi Shawn, I tend to slightly disagree with you. Precedence is always for Local OR.
Example: Add an object with the some unique property.Export it to Shared OR. Associate the same OR to the action. Now change the property of the object in Local OR. QTP will not be able to identify the object. Derived Conclusion : Same object was there in Local as well as shared (Same name and Shared OR Associated). However, QTP tends to pick up the property of the Local OR First. Yes its "either or" but the context of precedence here is which will be used first.
