Try Directory Printer. It works in regular Windows mode. PWDirPrn can be
found at http://www.techweb.com/winmag/software/toolkit.htm

Not sure what the /b in; dir /b>list.txt does - I guess it puts just the
filenames and not the path into the text file! Brilliant.

Thanks Bob - very useful too.

Go here to do all this with a free Windows tool - much quicker:

Once again, thanks to everybody who took the time to help!
