Thanks

Yes. Use the Dir command line.

Type in Start, Run:

CMD.EXE

dir /b C:\Foldername >C:\Foldername\filelist.txt

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.
