I'd like to create an e mail attachment that lists the
contents of a folder containing all my mp3 files. How can
I do this?
 
Do a google search for file lister, there are many available for download
for free.
 
Hi Buck,

Get to the Command (DOS-emulator)) screen and navigate to the directory that
contains your MP3 files.

Type "Dir > musiclst.txt" (without the quotes) and {Enter} to produce a
list of all files and directories in the current directory.

Type "Dir /b > musiclst.txt" (without the quotes) and {Enter} - to produce
a list of the files only.

Type "Dir/?" (without the quotes) and {Enter} to see all the Dir options

Hi,

Create a text list, then send that. Say your mp3 folder is D:\Mymp3

Start/run cmd

Run dir D:\Mymp3 /s>C:\docume~1\<username>\desktop\list.txt

Substitute your profile name for <username>. This will create a text list on
your desktop of the file names, you can email this file to whomever you
choose.

Several methods to accomplish this.......

To add a "Print Directory" feature to Explorer, go to
this KB Article.

Or you can download Printfolder 1.2 from.....

http://no-nonsense-software.com/freeware/

I use PF 1.2 and find it to be more than adequate with custom features.

OR Go to DOS(Command) prompt and directory.
Type DIR >MYFILES.TXT

All the above create a *.TXT file which can be attached or copied to your
email body.

Somewhere in all this you should add the filter *.mp3 if these are the only
ones you want to list.

Thanx very much, Alan!
