Wondering if there is a way to create a spreadsheet, with hyperlinks to specific files that are uploaded on dropbox. (hyperlink was created by going into dropbox, displaying specific file, copying address and creating hyperlink in spreadsheet). Files do not reside on my computer - only on dropbox. The specific people who receive the Excel file already have access to (files shared) said files on dropbox.

Hey Daphne, I'm not sure I understand - I DID create an excel file and I DID insert hyperlinks to the displayed page in dropbox... I emailed the spreadsheet to the people who needed to access said hyperlinks but they were unable to access the files directly - the link took them to dropbox sign in page. The goal of this is to, in one spreadsheet, with 40 categories (columns) and varying documents for each of 35 applicants, all at varying stages of completion - to see/access the files that have been submitted - so in addition to making it easier to access the files, the spreadsheet gives us information on where everyone is in the process... so I'm trying to do more than "just share files" - hope this helps explain how it is that I'm trying to use dropbox and why 🙂
