Not uploading to Dropbox.

I am trying to set up 2 computers (1 radio each computer) to upload to Dropbox so I can synchronise the logs.
I have set up all the files as mentioned, including an auto backup to Dropbox, but nothing happens. I cannot see any data in my SQlite file
on Dropbox.
An idea please as to what I am doing wrong.

Alternatively is there a way to net 2 computers running side by side so that the log info from one computer (radio) is automatically loaded onto the main Log4Om program on the second computer.?

Regards

You need to have the main logbook database (????????.SQLite) located in Dropbox or a Google Drive and on both computers go to File/Open Database and select that file - Then both computers will synchronise the data.

If however you want to log SIMULTANEOUSLY from both computers - Not one at a time then you should use a MySQL database, using SQLite is fine providing you don't have simultaneous logging

Thanks Terry,
It is all working perfectly now. I had the ZL1WN sq logs in the wrong place.
Thanks for your help.
Best wishes
