Grid View Profiles are DAT files that store a list of Visible Metadata Fields and the order in which they appear as columns within either variant of the Grid View utility, along with their column width and row height. Cases with Electronic Discovery enabled come equipped with their own unique <Default> profile, which is automatically created at the user-level for whoever creates that Case File. Beyond that, new profiles can be created and made available at multiple different Storage Levels depending on who should have access to them, and can be reused across multiple Case Files. The possible Storage Levels are as follows:
•User - Available to the current user in the current case. Stored in the case folder structure ($UserData). A profile of this type may be deleted only by the user who created it.
•Shared - Available to any user in the LAW case in which the profile was created. If a profile is shared, LAW will automatically display "(Shared)" after the profile name. This profile is also stored in the case folder structure ($UserData). A profile of this type may be deleted by any user.
•Global - Available to any user in any LAW case. If a profile is global, LAW will automatically display "(Global)" after the profile name. Global profiles are stored in <application path>\Shared folder. A profile of this type may be deleted by any user.
