A neat program for printing/exporting directory lists
 
1 Attachment(s)
Ok, here's a neat little application - it's called Print Folder.

You install the application, right-click on the folder you want to print, select "Print Folder".

This opens up a list of the folders contents in the application window which you can then play about with to your heart's content (ideal for making printed records of the contents of CDs etc :) ).

The only problem is that the .zip file it comes in has an unfortunate name :D

Any questions just give me a shout :)



Please Note: I've run an up to date virus scan against this file, and I have been running it on my machine for a while now without any problems. I won't accept any responsibility for any loss/damage that may occur through its use.

Nice one Raist, looks to a worthwhile tool, added it to my collection.

If all you want to produce lists of the files in directories then may I suggest karen's Directory Printer available from

Graphically displays the folder structure of a drive or path.

TREE [drive:][path] [/F] [/A]

/F Display the names of the files in each folder.
/A Use ASCII instead of extended characters.

Can also be piped to printer or to a text file as well :)

DIR /O:gen /s > file.txt
and then import the file into your favoured spreadsheet and mangle at will.

If you just want a basic directory printed out without the chance to play with the output you can also add it to the right click context menu.
Follow the instructions here to add the function to your right click.
Please note it sends the list directly to the printer and you don't get the option to alter the listing at all before it prints.
*note* the registry edit may not be needed, if you follow the instructions and when you right click a folder you get the extra function in the list then you do not need to edit the registry.
Well someone might find it handy to have at the click of a button.
