Hello Walter,
Thank you so much for replying. I currently have the Dropbox Basic, and my boss has Dropbox Professional Trial. I was wondering if maybe that was the issue, being that we all aren't under her Dropbox Professional Trail? Do we need to have our own logins branched off of her main dropbox, in order to share and editing documents within dropbox? At this office, we currently have our boss, and then 3 employees, and want to be able to share documents in dropbox and edit stuff within the dropbox itself. If you could please let me know the best way to accomplish that goal, we would greatly appreciate it!
