I'm being asked to test 5% of the files within a hard drive given to us.
There are 1620 files, so I need to test 81 randomnly choosen files.

I open the hard drive using Windows Explorer and sort them by Details.

I need to know if we can create a text file of the contents of the hard
drive, so that I can import it in Excel 2007 and place checkmarks on an
adjacent column to keep track of what files I'm testing. How do I do that? It
is possible? How?

you might be able to
use this tool:

then importing the printed data / file
so that it creates a table

maybe excel or word
can create the table / check list...
