How to view TShared file contents

dwh1104 — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 16:26:21 GMT

In QlikView, I have an application called "User Objects.qvw" that can display the end user's objects and bookmarks, including labels and selections, that come from the .shared files. I would like to do the same with .TShared files. Currently, I'm not even able to display the contents of .TShared files.

Is there a way to do this?

Open the file with Notepad++

Notepad++ doesn't appear to work efficiently. There is a lot of extra garbage characters within the text that make it unreadable.

You can create a .Shared file from the .Thsared at any time and import it in the app.

You can probably run an Execute statement in the "User Objects.qvw" dashboard to do the conversion and load the resulting file.

Daniele,

After configuring my batch commands, this method works for me.

Thanks,
