Invalid MS-DOS function --Unable to copy ".gsheet" file from google drive offline folder into drobox
I got google drive installed normally as drive G: One of the folders in google drive is set to be offline (instead of streaming/online only). Then I got Dropbox installed as will in F:\Dropbox ...
Hi Emanuel O., you can use Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides created on dropbox.com, however you can't move them to your Dropbox account from Google.

Dropbox StaffHi Emanuel O., let's jump right into this!
This doesn't seem like a Dropbox related error, I have to admit. I did some re-search on my end on Google, and it seems this usually happens when you're trying to copy content from one drive, to another one with a different format.
Or when the file is corrupted. If you try to preview the content on their initial path, are you able to do so? Also, are both of these drives the same format?
Keep me posted!
Let me be clear, this is direct question about about compatibility between Google Drive own formats and Dropbox, and not do much a generic abswer like yours "maybe its corrupted, maybe that, maybe something else".. no im asking a direct question a dropbox product manager or tech team can share a yes or bo, plain simple.
FYI: I been uding google drive as main drive, but just discovered it causes problems for me as developer to compile c++ when source is in google drive, but then found out Dropbox doesn't have the problem, so I was thinking moving all my development files from google drive to Dropbox, but early in the copy i received error i shared in post and it only happens with any of the 3 google drive files format:
*.gsheet
*.gdoc
*.gslide
Thanks

Hi Megan,
If i can't copy from my local google drive a .gsheet, .gdoc or .gslide into my local dropbox folder then how can I create google docs, google sheet or google slides in Dropbox ?
Thanks,

Hi Megan, I found the option in dropbox web to create new any type of "office like" documents in either Microsoft website or Google Drive website, this is amazing.. I wasn't aware of this.
But will document still be created and saved in Microsoft or Google cloud and only a shortcut stored in dropbox is it how it works ? or will document fully stays in dropbox side and only when to view or edit you use either Microsoft or google drive just as interface as all the saving it done only in dropbox, so yo just use microsoft/google drive web UI as just online editors ?
