how do i create a shared datafile?
Well, I dont know about the shared data file, but for one of my applications I did something like.
I just opened a file updated with the information from running application and read the file again when it is needed.
Newfile = open("/directory/location/of/ file/filename.txt","a+") to open a file in append mode ;
Newfile.write("data") to write data to a file
and
DataRead = Newfile.readlines() to read all the lines of file
