Hi,

Are you the team-designated guy to ask questions on OTN or is this one of the "team accounts" that integrators use to fulfill their clients needs?

Anyways...ad 1.) No, those are part of the /user/ folders when saved for the user and stored in /_selections/ so completely separate from the actual object they reference in terms of storage.

Selections for Application Roles for example - so anything stored for "Others" throguh the GUI and pertaining to groups of users - is stored with the dashboard:

ad 2.) If it's stored in the dashboard then you can use XML Search & Replace in Catalog Manager to modify this. If it's on a personal basis and hence tied to the user you can't through catalog manager but you could through the file system...but htis is NOT recommended if you don't know what you're doing so please don't.
