[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1154209, member: 38928"] I realise my ramblings seemed a little conflicted re:ftp. Perhaps edit-in-place was stretching it. You can open the file, but that process effectively copies the file to the local machine and then copies it back as you save. So you're still at the mercy of the quality of your connection. As far as folder selction for Dropbox goes you need the latest release candidate: [url=http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=28941&replies=29](12/15) - Release Candidate - 1.0.8 « Dropbox Forums[/url] You can also use symbolic links, search the dropbox forums for more info, but here are a few choice morsels: [url=http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=4735&replies=12#post-32301]Symlink Guide « Dropbox Forums[/url] [url=http://forums.dropbox.com/topic.php?id=27756&replies=2#post-173443]Selective Synch with SymLink « Dropbox Forums[/url] [url=http://seiryu.home.comcast.net/~seiryu/symboliclinker.html]SymbolicLinker[/url] [url]http://wiki.dropbox.com/DropboxAddons/DropboxFolderSync[/url] [url]http://wiki.dropbox.com/TipsAndTricks/SyncOtherFolders[/url] [/QUOTE]
