I need some help. I want to print the list of file names
in My Documents. Is this possible? I've looked
under "Help" and can't find anything that addresses it.
I have Windows XP. Assistance would be appreciated.
 
The easiest thing to do is to get a third party utility that will print the
list to a file. You can then decide whether or not you want to print the
list.

One that I like is Directory Printer from Karen's Power Tools.

or you can use one of these articles. Keep in mind that the list will be
extremely long so you may prefer to create a text list and view the list
rather than printing it.

Hi Doug,

You can use the command line DIR command and redirect its output to a
text file that you can print from Notepad. If you'd like something
that's integrated with Explorer, have a look at a 3'rd party
add-on such as ExpPrint http://www.jddesign.co.uk/.

ExpPrint is an Explorer extension that gives you a "Print Directory
Listing" context menu option when you select any combination of file
folder, disk drive, or files - including the Search results list. It
has quite a comprehensive sorting and layout capability, fully
supports Unicode (so it can print names that contain characters not
supported in the default code pages), and is only a small download.

ExpPrint is shareware, the only restriction on the non-registered
usage is that the Save settings capability is disabled. Other than
that it's fully functional.
