Latest Lists

how can I list file names of a folder in a word file?

What I need to do is to get/list the names of files of a particular folder which has got over 4500 files in a notepad (if file get numbered then there cannot be any thing better) or word file , obviously without typing them. Suggest me a solution. With Thanx!

1. Use command prompt: Start Run cmd OK CD "location of folder" <------ No quotation marks dir, enter There is a list of all files, right click, mark, select all, copy, then paste to your text file..
2. I didn't really understand your question 100% (the "if file get numbered then there cannot be any thing better" part I didn't understand). Anyway, check out this little standalone freeware app (it doesn't install, just put the .exe somewhere and launch it) - it might do what you want: http://home.a03.itscom.net/tsuzu/programing/en/ _
3. Start, run and type the word "command" in the box and press enter that should open up a DOS window. use CD to navigate to the folder you are interested in listing then type the following dir > file.lst Do a directory listing and you will see a file named "file.lst" Open it with any editor/word processor you want and there you will see the files in the folder. If you use dir /a > allfiles.lst the /a switch will list hidden and systems files as well.
4. Try this: 1. Click Start>Run 2. Then Type cmd[Enter]. 3. Go to the specified folder using dos command like: cd\My Documents\ then Hit [Enter] 4. Type command dir *.* > file.txt file.txt is any filename where you want the listing to be redirectred. hope this helps.
