Shared Repository: Entire application uses one Object Repository , that similar to Global GUI Map file in WinRunner 
 
Per Action: For each Action ,one Object Repository is created, like GUI map file per test in WinRunner

Shared Repository:

At this object repository is associated to the multiple tests. Shared repository has to be created and manage manually by the user


Per-action:
For each and every action separate object repository is created, It is created and managed by the QTP

Per Action object repository maintains a seperate object repository for each action in a test, as the test is divided into a number of actions.? This is the default object repository mode.

Shared Object Repository is used when two or more tests needs to work on the same object in same application. The reusability is maintained by storing all the information regarding the test object in shared object repository. When objects in your application change, test object information can be updated in one central location for multiple tests or components.

By default object repository takes peraction mode only. Extension for that is .mtr and if we want any application to be shared then we should save that with .tsr extension.

The difference between per-object repository and shared object repository is if we added the objects in the object repository and saved in the test,we can open a new test and go to test menu-->click on setings-->click on resources-->click on shared object repository and browse the path of the previous test then we will get the object repository from that.By using shared object repository we can share that objects in any test.

Shared Repository : These can be used in any test. It is placed in central repository. by associating the shared repository, we can use.
