Guested Account Posted January 15, 2012 Report Posted January 15, 2012 That will scan my file folders on the hard drives and make an alphabetical list of the content of each folder and put it in text word pad or notepad format. I did find one called Drive Inventory and it will scan your entire hard drive or any individual file folder you choose and it will put it in Word Pad or Note Pad or Excel format but it's only good for 7 days!! Thanks!! Quote

Thanks!! Jump into a dos box and pipe (>) dir to a txt file, like this: C:\Users\J7\Documents> dir > MyList.txt you can do help command C:>Help dir Can see /O option for sorting and other options for formating like /N You can also import the txt file into excel and sort it. There would be lots of ways to do to this, VB script in word or excel use Perl, or some other scripting language, write a small prog. WOMBAT Quote
