dir O:\ /s/b/o "o:\dl\misc\List\drive.txt"

What I am shooting for is to show files that are also in sub folders,
but I don't want the path displayed.

How do I modify this to not show the path?

Seymore,

How do I modify this to not show the path?

You could try to remove the '/b', but I don't think you will like the result
.... (too much crap besides the filenames). In short, you don't.

But its possible without even using 'dir'. Like this:

@echo off
echo.$$$.txt
for /r o:\ %%a in (*) do echo %%~nxa $$$.txt
sort $$$.txt o:\dl\misc\List\drive.txt
del $$$.txt

Hope that helps.

Can this be modified to use more than one drive?

Thanks

It can. I figured it out.

Thanks again

Seymore,

:-) Good to hear you did it yourself.

How did you do it though ? Duplicating the "for" line for each drive
(which is probably the simpelest way to do it) ?

Yep
Thanks again.
I wish I had been keeping a backup of my list like this years ago.

You're welcome.

I'm guessing he to be able to find a long filename back for a mangled 8.3
name in a folder (after having used a DOS copy or program) ? :-)
