Anna, Thank you very much for the kind way you corrected my miss-information. You are quite right. You can sync both ways. I guess I must have had the file open when I tried it, but I have done a good deal of work on this just now, and it works just like you said. Sorry for my miss-information, and thanks for the correction.

Here's how. Put the file in Dropbox/Apps/AFB_AccessNote. Then open AccessNote and choose Sync, assuming you've already set up Dropbox in AccessNote. The file should show up in your list of files in AccessNote. Be sure the file is closed on your computer before editing it in AccessNote, and when you're done, back out of it to the main file list and press Sync. Similarly, if you want to edit it on your computer, be sure it's closed in AccessNote and do your editing. Then the next time you open AccessNote, press Sync before you open the file. You should find all your changes. I've done this several times, and it has always worked just fine. The only tricky thing is remembering to press the Sync button.
