In the days of dos, you could type a command that would result in a printed list of the file names in a particular directory. Can that be done in Windows? I need to get a printed list of files.

Thank you in advance.
 
dir /b/s >dir-list.txt ??

Hi, Tracy.

This KB article is for WinXP. I don't know if it can be made to work in
Win2K:
HOW TO: Add a "Print Directory" Feature for Folders in Windows XP

Also, as Sto Rage said, there are several ways to do it from the "DOS"
window, using either dir or tree, but you probably know those. As usual in
DOS, just type the command name with /? to get a mini-Help file for that
command: dir /?
