Hey Stgcmtj, thanks for posting here!
Based on everything that you described it sounds like this is a file that you created, and you're not accessing it using a shared folder/link, right?
Would you mind clarifying the exact message you receive on your end when editing the file, using the mobile app?
Also, what is the current plan that you're using?
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

The message I receive is..."Your file xxxx.xlxs wasn't updated because we cannot merge changes made by another user".....
I am the only user on both Windows PC's and the Samsung Tablet. I am using the baic 3 user plan.
Thank you for your help....Ted

Hey Stgcmtj, thanks for clarifying!
I did some research on my end, and this seems to be a Microsoft error, and not a Dropbox one.
Would you mind checking this page here, and let me know if this helps at all?
