Dear Colin,

I don't think its you, and you can't fix it - Bernard needs to send the link to 
the list in another manner to make it work as expected.

This is one aspect of Dropbox that can be very easy to inadvertently mistake - 
which is the 'right' way to send information to others on a read-only, easily 
downloaded basis (without requiring your correspondents to join Dropbox to do 
it, either).

I've dropped Bernard a line directly with detailed suggestions for how to 
re-try the below so that it can work for you (and others) who might want it.

The full gory details, for anyone 'detail oriented' enough to care about them, 
are here:

Regards, 
 Simon
