Great suggestion for solving part of my dilemma. Yes, it answers "relatively" when files were added/deleted. Oddly, there isn't a time stamp--just the relative order in which it added/deleted. So it doesn't define a sub-group (like files added after a descrete time). There doesn't seem to be a way to select a group of files in the screen (like a checkbox or shift-click or ctrl-click), only allowing selecting files individually. So, I'm back to examining file content and comparing the content.
Also, I couldn't find a way to get at the "Events" page via a link/control on the website. Not a biggie, it is easy to add the /events to get https://www.dropbox.com/events. I have a free account and I guess they made changes. So is that a legacy feature not offered to those that don't know about it? Or is it not shown to free accounts but shown to paid? It doesn't matter--I'm just curious.
So, I am still looking for a complete solution, but Kudos to Rich.
