[ZendTo] Re: How to access files in library ?

[Marlon R Deerr]

Ok thanks for the quick response Brian, however that is where my problem
lies because when I click on Dropoff, I am not given an dropdown option
to select from the library. All I can do is search my local system for a
file (as if the library feature wasn't even present). Must I have to
activate this "library of files" feature first or does it automatically
work as long as there are files within the library folder.  I am 100%
sure there are files in the library folder so I am at a loss here.

Sorry my mistake in understanding, if you just select 'dropoff' and in
the area where you can choose your files, next to it there is now a drop
down menu to select that file from the library. (It is right between the
button 'choose file' and the 'description' field.
