genaration of folder and sub folder names
genaration of folder and sub folder names
(OP)
is there a way that I can generate a list of folders and sub folders within one path? eg. If I have a folder called "D:\parts" can a get a list of all folders and sub folders within that?
The reason I ask is that I need to generate a series of search paths and typing them in will take hours even with great use of "copy" and "paste" !!

D:\parts\12\
D:\parts\12\abc\
D:\parts\12\xyz\sde\zsde\
etc.

If you want the directory structure of D:\Parts
Start>Programs>MS DOS Prompt
dir d:\parts\*. /s/b > list.txt
The list will be stored in the file list.txt
Hope this helps...

On the left-hand menu at the bottom, select the Other Shortcuts tab. Then search in My Computer or My Documents as you would normally do in Explorer. Once you display the directory information you are looking for, simply Print.
Play around with it, and you can even figure out how to change the column headers of the displayed info. Great feature for generating quick check lists of items.

Dir C:*. /s >dirlist.txt
Open dirlist.txt with Notepad or even import it to Excel. Edit to suit.
There are many options available here - type dir /? to find them
The >filename.txt is a redirect command. You can do >lpt1 or >prn if you just want a printed list.
