How can I print a list of files in a folder?

How can I print the list of files held in a folder as shown in the dialogue
box 'Open' or 'Save in'?

The easiest maybe to do a screenshot (if it fits on the desktop, I mean, you
see all files without scrolling) using the PrtScreen key, and pasting it
(Ctrl+V) to Paint and choosing File->Print.

Julia,

I use the good old fashioned "DOS" or CMD as it's now
known.

Start menu
Run
CMD.exe
"Find the required directory" e.g. CD\C:\My Documents\My
Pictures
DIR >PRN.txt
Use any of the DIR filters as listed in DIR/? (again from
the CMD prompt)

The TEXT file is then created in the same directory as
you are in, and can be loaded into any word editor.

Hope that helps.
Dean

See http://www.word.mvps.org/FAQs/General/PrintDocList.htm for two
methods. Or see http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/InsertFileNames.htm
for a macro solution. Or try the Printfolders utility linked from Word
MVP Graham Mayor's website http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm .

Thanks Gyorgy. I have resorted to this way before but it's not always
suitable is it.

I'll give this a go. If memory serves me (I used to do this when on DOS) it
will be OK but not perfect. Thanks vey much. Julia

Will give these a go. There's plenty of scope with these ideas. Many thanks.
