Can anyone tell me how to print the contents of a directory in list form or the results of a file search?
 
Hi,

Can anyone tell me how to print the contents of a directory in list form or the results of a file search?


Go to Start > Run > cmd

browse to the directory using the command cd, cd..

and type

dir *.* /s > list.txt

It'll create a file you can open with notepad or word and print.

Hope this helps
 
Greetings --

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.
