Does anyone know how to print a contents list of files contained within a
folder and subfolders?

WIN XP
 
You need to go to the DOS window for the folder your in and enter DIR *.* >
c:\temp\filelist.txt This will put a file in your temp folder with a listing of
all the files. At the DOS prompt, you can enter DIR /? to get all the options
for that command.

There are plenty.

There are plenty. I sometimes even use SnagIt to capture the list in Explorer
as text so that I can paste it into emails and documents.
