@normanm welcome to the forums! We'll get everything straightened out :)
When you say that you exported your 1Password data to Dropbox, do you mean that you enabled syncing via Dropbox by going to 1Password > Preferences > Syncing and choosing Dropbox in the dropdown menu? (Wow, that's a mouthful.) Or do you mean that you literally used the Export option and saved that information to Dropbox?
if it's the first, we'll figure out what's going on. You might want to check out this guide to sharing a vault with Dropbox.
If it's the second, please make sure you have that information saved in 1Password and then delete it from Dropbox. Exported data is not encrypted and could be compromised by someone if they accessed your Dropbox account. Note that this only applies to exported data -- synced data, on the other hand, is protected by a whole bunch of security features. Once you've done that, run through the steps above to sync your data.
