Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone can tell me, is there any way I can get the names of all my folders in a certain place, turned into a word document, without having to resort to typing out the name of every folder one by one?

I know its a bit odd, and I doub't there's an easy way out, but I'd really rather not have to type all folder names out if i can avoid it.

Cheers

Its easy to put a list together in a text file. You can then save the text file as a word doc.

Press Windows Key and R
In the Run dialog type 'cmd' and press return (no quotes)
Change to the desired location that you want to list the directories using 'cd' eg cd C:\KKV\Music
type
dir /A:D /B > my_list.txt
Now you will have a text file called my_list.txt in the same location with a list of all your directories.
