Filename To Notepad

[bonsaimax]

I would like to make a list of files in Notepad or M$ Word. Is there away of doing this with just a couple clicks of the mouse? It would be a pain doing this manually for 200 or so files.

Cheers!

From a command prompt:

DIR [path of dir containing files] > [path of text file you want to create]

e.g.

DIR c:\windows\*.* > c:\listofwindowsfiles.txt

Then open the "c:\listofwindowsfiles.txt" file in notepad.

To get a command prompt, click "Start", then "Run..", then type "cmd" (without the quotes), then click "OK".

You beat me to it. Also if you need the list of files including all subdirectories use DIR /S and if you don't want all the other information such as size, etc use DIR /B and if you want in alphabetic order DIR /O:N. You can combine the switches also such as DIR /B/O:N/S for brief listing, alphabetical order and all sub directories.

If the files are under different directories but not sub directories after you make the first list with the > control you can add to this file other lists by using >> instead. This appends the list to the end of the file.

thank you both for your replies

Try Tracker it is a file explorer like the Windows one,

but with the very useful facility of being able to cut and paste file information.
