Because the number of userfiles in PV is limited, it is recommended to store user data in one common addin data file name SHARED. Each record in this file contains a signature/name, which allows each application to find it's own records. The signature contains the name of the application and a specific name for the record.
In the related procedures as application name the name of the basic program is used, if not given as parameter.
This Shared File Standard was suggested by Anton Poluektov and Wolfgang Ortmann.

Procedures that work with records of the Shared File are:

LOADSHARED, SAVESHARED	Low level procedures, work with filebuffer
REMOVESHARED	Deleting a record
FINDSHARED	Find a record
SAVESHAREDINT, LOADSHAREDINT	Storing integer arrays
SAVESHAREDFLOAT, LOADSHAREDFLOAT	Storing float arrays
