Printing out a directory in Word 2000

I have 40 documents in a folder that I want to make sure I have a hard copy
for. I want to print out the list of all the documents so I can check each
one off. How do I print out the listing of all the .doc files in that folder?
 
With Windows File Explorer, select all these files, then right mouse
click, and pick "print".

Hope this is useful to you. Let us know.

Hi,
there are lots of possibilities, and lots of utilities,
which provide that feature. A very simple way would be,
to collect the names (+ path) of the docs in a new word doc
and print them from there. Like this:
Sub Makro1()
' 1 = msoSortByFileName
Dim i As Integer
With Application.FileSearch
.FileName = "*.doc"
.LookIn = "C:\test" ' your folder
.Execute SortBy:=1
For i = 1 To .FoundFiles.Count
Selection.TypeText Text:=.FoundFiles(i) & vbCr
Next i
End With
End Sub
In case you have never created even the simplest macro,
some learning may be unavoidable.

utility at http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm

This will print the files themselves, not a directory list.
