Printing a list

[CHARLES]

I have a directory called music. It has music mp3's in
it. How do I print a list of the titles. When I bring
up the list in the directory there doesn't seem to be a
way to print the titles. Any ideas?

D/L Directory Printer free from www.karenware.com/powertools . It will do what
you want...and much more.

Get this little TextGrabber Utility...

http://www.winsite.com/bin/Info?500000010955

- it does work on XP - set your Folder to View Details
and then use the TextGrabber - it will SAve as a Text
File and you can then Print it out

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 Word.

Here are three ways:

1. Go to a command prompt and issue the command

dir [drive:folder] > prn

If that doesn't work, your printer may not be connected to prn.
In that case issue this command instead:

dir [drive:folder] > c:\tempfilename (you can use any name and
put it in any folder you want)

Then open notepad, open tempfilename, and print it from there.


2. Go to
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q321379
and follow the instructions there.


3. Download and use any of the several freeware/shareware
utilities that can do this.

From memory I don't think "dir > lpt1" worked for me after I changed to
a USB printer.
