There are probably a lot of people here who'd like to help out, but (and I'm just speaking for myself) what you write has so many moving parts it's hard to know where to start.
To illustrate:
- you begin with referring to "using Excel within Dropbox"--so far as I know, Dropbox just hosts files, not software programs per se.
- You go on to note that "the same Excel features are not available on 365 as they are in the full downloaded version" (which leaves this reader, at any rate, wondering what bearing this has on the Dropbox reference, or the file in Dropbox);
- And then you give a "example" of a task you want to do--move or copy a sheet from one workbook to another (which is finally getting to something that might need help)
- .....
do you begin see the difficulty here? Do you want help with Dropbox, full download vs 365, copy and paste, move and copy....??
At the end you add the statement "Oh I'm on a Mac computer too." [I'm with you on that, working as I am on a MacBook Air.]
Anyway, without either a sample of the workbook or a link to that online file with which you're struggling, it's hard to make any specific suggestion other than "Keep trying"
Is it possible for you to provide:
- a link to that on-line file, or
- a copy of the workbook (devoid of any confidential or personal info), or
- any other thing or description that might be more specific and focused, or
- all of the above?
