Printing list of files off CD

[Guest]

How do I print the list of files that I have saved onto a CD?

Open a DOS window (Start/Run/CMD) and enter....
dir D:\ > list.txt
Where D:\ is your CD drive, Then a txt file (list.txt) will be created open
it in notepad and send it to your printer.

How do I print the list of files that I have saved onto a CD?

Here are four ways:

1. Go to a command prompt and issue the command

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. Write (for example in Notepad) a 1-line text file:
DIR %1 /O >LPT1:

Save it as "printdir.bat" in the "Send To" folder.

Then, to print list of files in any folder, right-click that folder and
select Send to | printdir.bat

To include subfolders, change the comand to DIR %1 /O/S >LPT1:

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

4. Download and use any of the several freeware/shareware utilities that can
do this, such as the popular

I have a similar problem but the text file created, " list.txt" is empty.
