Just think about the technology involved and everything that COULD go wrong. It may work fine 99.99% of the time. But it is not guaranteed. I'll bet the license agreement you accepted said something like "we are not responsible for loss of data"? Dropbox is fine for off-site storage of a backup, and many other things. But don't use it for your live database unless you are willing to accept the occasional glitch. -- Dennis Kowallek (LTools) http://zippersoftware.com/ltools/index.htm http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ltools NOTE TO LUG USERS: Use plain text if you want me to read your post.
