Hi Gregory,

 

much appreciate your assistance with this.

So for a an application running on one machine linked to a dropbox account, to 'move' the shared folder of another account, the account would need to use the function on the Dropbox website (logged in as that user) to allow the named APP to have access to the account, and that key opens up the file APIs on the target machine.

I think I have an angle to explore and see how practical it is.

thanks

Peter
