If you want to share [http://accountingaddons.com.au/budgetlink/ BudgetLink] and you don't have or want to use a server is can be shared using Drop Box. This support note explains how to do that. Because Drop Box synchronises the databases rather than updating them like on a Server, only one person can enter budget data or change setting at the same time. For this reason, if choosing the Dropbox sharing path we recommend that you designate one person to either update BudgetLink and or control when users can update budgets etc. If you don't then the consequence could be duplicated databases and someone loosing their changes. As a safe guard re recommend that you lock you budget versions with a password if sharing using Drop Box. So if you are good with the above limitations then go for it
