Pat, actually the share folder button does show up, but I'm not able to
activate that button.  There is a newer version of dropbox, but I don't have
that at this point.  For some reason, dropbox use to automatically update,
but that stopped at 1.6.18.  I heard that there were problems with version
2, but I also heard that dropbox was aware of the problems and would be
working on it.  I hope that is the case.  I guess I'll go ahead and update
to the latest version to see if there is any improvement.

Hi Bill, and Everyone,

In my opinion, this has been a problem for a long time with 
Window-Eyes and Dropbox, but I've heard it's a problem with other 
screen readers, as well.

I've done it, but it's not easy, and even the edit boxes, where you 
put the email address, don't read the tags with Window-Eyes.

I sure wish they would get this problem fixed. I always have to use 
another screen reader to perform this task, and yes, the button to 
share a dropbox folder never shows up with Window-Eyes.

I was hoping that someone would contact Dropbox to get this problem solved.

I challenge the GW Micro support staff
  to attempt to share a dropbox folder. with Window-Eyes . <smile> 
It's very hard.

If someone has a better way to do this with Window-Eyes 8.2 please let us
know.

Thanks.

Pat Ferguson
