Re: Migrate files to Google Drive vs. convert to Microsoft Office files?

Apologies up front if this is already addressed, but if so, I can't find it. I need help understanding the Dropbox/Google changes that are taking place.  Here is my simplistic reading. If I search my Dropbox account for .gdoc, .gsheet, or .gslide files (I've only found one), those files will be moved to google drive unless I convert them (it) to a Microsoft format. Even if I don't convert it and it moves, there will still be a link from Dropbox to the google drive file. Is this all correct?
