listing all files on computer

[W3 tal fulano 1]

How can you list ALL the files on your computer in a single list that you can
sort and/or edit using Excel and that includes file size and location, etc.?

Any Office features, tricks or work arounds to accomplish this?

(This was easy in the old MS DOS days, but a way to do this in Windows
eludes me. I don't know how to get My Computer or Windows Explorer to show me
the whole tree of files, and their displays can't be cut and pasted or
otherwise edited and saved. Am I missing something obvious. . . ?)

I'm using Windows XP Pro and Office Pro.

In advance, thank you.

Is there something specific you are looking for? I'm assuming you have
something in mind other than to create a list of thousands and thousands of
file names, etc.
