Print list of files in a folder??? Or on a cd?

Pghpooh

Senior member
I burn music to a cd.
Some of the cd's have hundreds of files on them.
Example... I burned a group of songs in the mp3 format to a cd and there is around 170 songs on the cd.

I want to print a list of the songs on the cd. And hopefully the list will match the order tha they appear on the cd.
Is there software that will let me do this?
 
if they're in a folder on the computer, you could always use the Tree command in the prompt to output to a .txt file

I'm sure that there is probably a more elegant solution to this though
 
Many ways possible, but ..

If all files are in one directory, go to command prompt, navigate to CD drive, then type dir *.* > c: \myfiles.txt

(no space after the colon)

That will create a file called myfiles.txt in the root of C:, which you can open and print.

Read about dir command to choose sort order.

Wiki says that the old WINFILE.exe is still available:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_Manager_(Windows)

According to Wiki:

"The program's interface showed a list of directories on the left hand panel, and a list of the current directory's contents on the right hand panel. File Manager allowed a user to create, rename, move, print, copy, search for, and delete files and directories, as well as to set permissions (attributes) such as archive, read-only, hidden or system, and to associate file types with programs."

The version of the program that will work for WIN XP can be downloaded here:

I downloaded the Karen's Directory Printer and gave it a try.
It looks like it will work for me. I have to adjust the top and bottom margin to make it look centered on the paper.
I have win7 64 bit on my pc and will give the other softeware a try later when I have more time. Grandkids are staying for a few days and spare time will be non existant!! LOLOL
Thanks!!!
