I have a question about Print 
Out a Directory Listing:



Actually, I have a better answer than using your printer.
You will use the same command, but not to the LPT port in order to get a nicely alpha-sorted 
text file. This works best if you understand the most simple of DOS commands.

Go to Start>Run> and type COMMAND and hit the Enter key.
Using the CD command, change directories to the directory you want to create the 
listing for.

Once in the DOS listing of that directory, type the following line to create your 
neat little text file:

dir /s /on /b >Dir_List.txt

For "Dir_List.txt" you can use any name you want as long as it's 8 characters or 
less. and you still have to use the .txt file extension.

For ease I created a batch file to automatically do this right from the windows directory.

If anyone thinks creating a directory listing list this is hard, let alone annoying, 
they could have found the resources on the internet with a single google search, 
and the answer is within the first three entries.
