Hi Priya,
Shared repository is a repository which you can make at any place in your hard disk.Shared repository is common for all the actions that is the object that you have defined in this repository would be used and same in all the actions that you run.It has its own advantages and disadvantages.I would suggest you not to use shared repository until you are well versed with the data flow of your application and QTP as well.Use per action repository.It would be easy to handle.Anyways,if u wanna know how to make and where to make a shared repository then open the QTP and go to Test->Settings and then click on the Resources tab.There you will see the object repository type and you can browse and give the path of your own shared repository.
As far as I know,it is not possible to call a object repository of one application while running script for another application.
