Can anyone please help I want to be able to Print MP3 songs
into lists for Reference purposes, in the past I just
opened up Word Pad and then dragged the Songs into it and
text would appear real quickly now if I try and do it it
takes for ever for a song to appear in Word Pad is there a
setting I have forgotten to do because it used to work real
fine in the past thank,s
Regard,s Steve.
 
Hi Steven,

Open a command prompt (start/run cmd), go to the folder of choice.

Run "dir> file.txt". This will create a text file of the contents of the
folder that you can open in notepad for printing or saving.

If you wish to add the contents of the subdirectories, run "dir
<drive><folder> /s> file.txt".

If you head to google.com and search on "free directory printer", you will
also find many other useful tools.

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.
