typing "tree c:" works!
but, I only end up with only the subfolders as: "C:\documents and
settings\user TREE"
In other words, the listing is the same for both entries; the tree
subfolders do not display except for the c:\documents and settings\user
folder?
I am perplexed.

This concerns the 'TREE' command at the command prompt:
Why does c:\Documents and Settings\user\TREE work?
while c:\TREE does NOT work?
Or, how can I view my tree within my entire harddrive?
In other words, when I type, "c:\Documents and Settings\user\TREE
", I get the tree listing of the 'Documents and Settings' folder.
How can I view same for the entire c:\ drive??

TREE [drive:][path] [/F] [/A]
/F Display the names of the files in each folder.
/A Use ASCII instead of extended characters.
So...
Start button --> RUN --> CMD --> OK
TREE C:\
<enter>
Want to save the results to a text file?
TREE C:\ > c:\tree.txt
<enter>
Although I am unsure why you would want that. heh

Please be more specific; I am a novice, and need more precise data.
I cannot be more specific than I was.
I gave you the EXACT commands and methods to execute those commands.
I am unsure what 'specifics' beyond that you are looking for in reference
to your query of, "How can I view same for the entire c:\ drive??"
If, for some unknown reason, you want the "tree" view for your *entire*
hard drive, either:
1) change directory to the root before you run the tree command:
cd C:\ [enter]
tree [enter] OR tree | more [enter]
OR
2) specify the directory properly in the tree command, including the \,
that is:
tree c:\ [enter]
