You can see a list of your shared folders on the Sharing page and a list of all share links on the Links page, but that's it. Dropbox does not have a way to list all of the files shared within those folders.

But if I only shared a single file within a folder (without sharing the folder itself), there is no way to find it again ??

How did you share it? If you created a link to the file, it will be listed on the Links page. If you invited the person to the file, it will be listed on the Sharing page under the Files tab.

I browsed my files, then when I found the file that I wanted to share I clicked on "share" on the right, and entered the e-mail address of my contact without creating a link...

The problem is that on this page, it's written that there are no shared files (even if I can see some shared files by browsing my folders)

How do you know they're shared files? Can you take a screenshot?

Doing a bit of testing (and actually reading what was on screen), the share/files pages I linked to above shows you the files that have been shared with you, and not those that you have shared. The only place you can see files that you've shared is within the Files list itself (there is no display showing all the files you've shared like there is for shared folders).

I think you're right, and that was the reason of my question...

But I find it incredible that there is no display showing all the files I've shared (like there is for shared folders) !!!!
