That depends on what you want to do, lebe. :slight_smile:
More specifically, if you want to have:
- A separate copy of the file with only your edits, then yes, you'll have to download and re-upload it to the shared folder.
- Only one file with everyone's edits, those should be automatically applied, so you shouldn't have to download and re-upload the file.
Let me know what you find or if you have any other questions!

Thanks for getting back to me, lebe.
Are you referring to where it's being downloaded? Could you please send me a screenshot (without personal info) of this so that I have a better visual understanding?
Keep me posted!

It is an excel document that was uploaded by someone else on the file authorization. I made some modifications and it says it is saved to dropbox but can't find it in any files.
The excel has names, ss#'s, dates of birth etc... so can't do a screenshot...
It says it is saved on the excel top "ribbon" after the file name and also at the bottom of the screen it says "saved to dropbox"...

Thanks for the additional info, lebe.
If this is a file in a shared folder, you should be able to find it by going through the shared folder in question, which should be under your Files tab on the website.
If you don't find it but you remember the name, could you try searching for it in your search bar?
If you're still having trouble locating it, could you please clarify what you mean when you mention that:
