Hi All

Shot in the dark, but is it possible to print the contents of the folders in
windows explorer but (and here's the catch) without using the Command Prompt
or third party software (and not using print screen).

I imagine the answer is no but any help greatly appreciated

Kind regards

Rexmann

Here's how to add the print directory feature to the Windows
Explorer file menu. I don't know why MS didn't do include
this, as default, in XP and Vista.

From the command prompt (Start > Run > Cmd.exe), simply change to
the desired directory and type "dir > filelist.txt" or "dir > lpt1,"
just as you used to do in DOS. Any of the switches for the DIR command
(type "dir /?") will work with this command, if you wish to modify the
output. You can then subsequently edit the resulting text file using
NotePad, WordPad, Word, etc.
