Tip: Identifying Dropbox client version on Windows 7

Just by hovering with the mouse pointer over the Dropbox system tray icon.

Warning: Issue when using Dropbox on Windows 7 that can waste your file irreversibly

Reproduction:
I have used a pdf file for this scenario.
1) Open your pdf from its original location.
2) Move the file to the destination folder on Dropbox by dragging and selecting "Move Here".

3) Ignore this first dialog box.
4) Close the pdf.
5) Repeat Step (2).

6) Select "Move and Replace" from the second dialog.
7) Select Cancel for the first dialog.

--> File disappeared without any trace for its existence!
And not in the Recycle Bin.

It is worth mentioning that I have tried the same procedure using non-Dropbox folder; however, the file was maintained in the destination folder.

Microsoft Access: Error copying data to Sharepoint

Error Reproduction:
1) Open Excel file in Access
2) EXTERNAL DATA --> More --> SharePoint List


Error message:
There was an error copying data to a SharePoint list.Duplicate output destination 'Title'.

Workaround:
In my case that was a column with the title "title", just by removing it from the source Excel sheet, the export completed successfully, and even with the column title in the destination!

Another recommendation I read somewhere was to rename the Excel sheet filename to eliminate any special characters, which wasn't my issue.

To overcome the behavior of the messages status change while previewing the list of e-mails without the intention to actually consider this as read, the following option can be uncheck to transfer the responsibility of un\marking your messages statuses.
