I was hoping to be able to use ONE bib file, to be accessed and updated
by any one of the collaborators.
Your solution will work if I were the only user. We keep the bib files
in a shared folder on a Dropbox (cloud) folder,
but, as I said, the reference to it is different in Linux and in Windows.

I collaborate with various people, some of whom (sadly) still use Windows.
Because of the difference in path designation between Linux and Windows,
we constantly have to tweak the path reference to the .bib files that
are used
by a document we are working on: for Windows it is C:/.../share/file.bib ,
and for Linux is it /home/...share/file.bib
It would be nice to be able to set the header of the path in Document
Settings.
In Preferences I see such things for various thinks, but not for the
bibliography files.
How do other people deal with that?
Put it in the TEXMF tree (/TEXMF/bibtex/bib/), then LaTeX/BibTeX will find it
just by the file name.
