    Hi,

    I am looking for a program to catalog files and folders. I really want it to make contents lists for DVD-Rs on which I'll be backing up data, particularly mp3s. I would just like a simple list of folders, and/or files.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Ro

    Cheap n' nasty
    Dir /ad /o /s > Dirlist.txt
    Dir /b /o /s > FileList.txt
    Dir /o /s > Details.txt

    Or even better:

    TREE [drive:][path] [/F] [/A]
    where:
    /F Display the names of the files in each folder.
    /A Use ASCII instead of extended characters.

    Output is in ASCII format, though, so you may want to run a quick conversion, e.g.:
    uniconv ASCII mylist.txt cp1252 mylist.txt

    (or is this overcomplicating things?) :D

    There are loads of shareware tools out there for managing libraries of media files., Though typically, I don't think that these are too useful...

    Maybe something like this is what you're looking for?
