Problem in acessing network shared gmw files

Hi,
I use GM on my three machines (2 desktops and laptop). My data are stored in shared folder of Dropbox. On every machine path of the main Dropbox folder is different (see below). On two desktop compurers (Win 7 and Win XP) there is no problem to open any GMW files which include paths of file. Gmw files are created on both computers. I can not open shared gmw files on laptop (Win 7) - I get message informing that gmw file contain incorrect path.
Dropbox paths:
Desktop 1 C:\Documents and Settings\zmalol\My Documents\Dropbox\GM data\ProjectDEM
Desctop 2 F:\User_data\zmalol\Dropbox\GM data\ProjectDEM
Laptop \Dropbox\GM data\ProjectDEM

Are you using the same GM version on all computers? So long as your data is in the same location relative to the GMW file it should work regardless of the absolute path. Where does the actual data live relative to the GMW file?
Thanks,
