How can I make this only enumerate the system32 directory and not
subdirectories?

for /R %windir%\system32 %x IN (*.dll) DO echo %x >> C:\dave.txt

By definition the R switch walks the subdirs. Use this instead:
for /f "tokens=*" %x in ('dir %windir%\system32\*.dll') do @echo %x >>
C:\dave.txt

If DIRCMD includes the /s switch then use this:
for /f "tokens=*" %x in ('dir /-s %windir%\system32\*.dll') do @echo %x >>
C:\dave.txt

Replace "W" with "L"
 
Thank you Clay and Paul for two workable solutions.
