Just  comment;

I have my log saved in Dropbox. I can open it direct from DX4WIN and as
DX4WIN remember where the log file is it will always open it from Dropbox.
Files are stored and backed up in Dropbox. Since Dropboxfiles are reachable
from the computer when it is not connected to the net, it is always
possible to use the logbook and then when connected it will be saved
online. To be 'extra' sure I save the backup files to an external HD
directly from DX4WIN. Dropbox keeps track of versions so if something goes
wrong it is possible to go back to an earlier version of the log.
