    Hi Sanchez:

    Well, what I ended up doing was to drag the file I wanted to upload over to the upload button and dropping the file there....That started the upload....

     

    I now have another question for you.. I now want to delete a file using the Dropbox website. I login to my account, but I am unable to figure out how to delete.  Some of the instructions I found on the Internet say to click on he icon next to the file name...I don't have this...Can you possibly help me with this problem?
