So here we go.
I want Dropbox as a standard save location on Excel, but of course W8 doesn't like that as they want you to use CryDive.
After faffing about I find a small batch file download that is supposed to do it for you.
Hooray!
Except it doesn't work.
It doesn't recognize the OS.
In the end I had to start plonking around in the registry to see if that would solve the problem.
Still no joy.
Eventually managed to edit the batch file, enter the dropbox path and managed to add it.
What should take 30 seconds took 30 minutes!
PITA

Yeah, I've had customers like that, too. You seem to have a special talent!
Personally I've never had any such trouble with any of the Office365 apps.

I've been using Bittorrent Sync[^] with some officemates successfully...works like a charm...no middle man server to steal your data or charge exorbitant fees like DropBox.
I wouldn't want people storing 100 meg files on it but for your usual Word, Excel, PowerPoint stuff, it's great.

It's Saturday morning over here in Australia, though...
What was your three-char search?
|
|
|
|

I was half joking about it being a valid search. I copied and pasted ??? into google as a brain fart (bad encoding on a file I was parsing) then remembered google doesn't care for punctuation much. Then I decided to share with you guys because it's Friday afternoon.

Is it just me (it usually is) or have you not been around for a while? Don't recall speaking with you for some time. Hope all is well.

I've been super busy at work lately, not on much. All is going okay, unfortunately my dog is ill.

Nothing serious, I hope?

Seems like it might be. He's only 4, but they took a biopsy Wednesday. Fear it might be a tumor. We will know more soon. Been sick for 2 weeks, lost weight, fluid in the abdomen. His levels of everything as tested by his blood seem alright, and he's still playful.
I'm staying optimistic and enjoying the hell out of my time with him.

Throw a stick for him for me?
Hope the biopsy is negative, even if that means they don't know what's wrong yet...![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Yeah, I was kind of joking with you guys that I found something like that, but everyone caught on to punctuation real quick.
