It's possible to pass selections from one QlikView document to another provided they have same dimensions (or at least one same dimension).

Steps:

Set up a button, or text object and add a trigger

Set the trigger action to External

Open QlikView Document. put in name of the qv doc to be opened

make sure that the 'Transfer State' checkbox is ticked.

'OnAnySelect' trigger, you don't get the action to open a new qvw file. In such requirement, you might have to go with macro, which is not recommended. Do you really want to open the new application when a value is selected in another app ? You might have to explain your actual scenario in more details.
