What do the .shared files in \QlikTech\Documents\ folder hold?

Hi, What do the .shared files in \QlikTech\Documents\ folder hold? Bookmarks, or something about what's selected currently, default selections, or something else? Just curious. Thanks!

(This is in the folder holding the qlikview documents in the qlikview server that we present on AccessPoint.)

Thanks, it looked like that to me too but wanted a second opinion from anywhere. (I'm getting ready to overhaul one of the dashboards and idly wondered about implications for the associated file hanging out outside the dashboard's prj folder. )

Basically there will be three types of files in your qlikview folder other then .QVW

1) .pgo file consist the license details (session , document , user CAl)

2) .meta file contains document properties details (i.e , document category, distribution list information e.t.c)

3) .Shared file contains the details of all the shared object created by the user for the respected report.
