Using drop box when iPad is offline

[macgrl]

To use Dropbox offline I believe that you have to select a file as a favourite on the ipad and this will store it locally?

My question is this - once you open a document can you then access that via the iPad whether you select it as a fav or not? I opened a doc and it now opens whether I am offline or online. Is this because it is in some sort of history cache or something. Does it last or do I really need to select it as s fav?

What program? I know with say, bookman it can store it locally and have it access it's own file system.

I wouldn't be surprised if the program in question has a file system in it or something of the like.

If I open say a word doc or pdf with dropbox that I have stored in dropbox
