3 months agoHey BentHolm!
What Rich mentioned is true. It sounds like this is an Excel issue, or setting rather than a Dropbox one. With that being said, I can't provide you with the exact steps on how to resolve it.
However, on our side the best thing that you can do is make sure to sync these files as available offline before starting to work with them.
It might have to do with the fact that online-only files aren't fully synced locally to the device. All you see inside your Dropbox folder is the file's placeholder, and not the actual data of the entire file.
If you need something else, please let me know and I will be more than happy to help every step of the way.
