How can I count files in sub-folders?


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have a folder with 2 or more levels of sub-folders. I want to

automatically produce a text file that contains the names of all of the

files in each sub-folder. Can I do this without writing a program - maybe

just using a BAT file with DOS commands? Any suggestions would be

appreciated. And I apologize if this is the wrong place to ask this

question. TIA, Paul

you should be able to do a simple bat file with the dir/s command and pipe

it to a text file

Thanks Jim - That's perfect - I should have remembered that - I've been away

from DOS too long...
