Re: [PCTECH] Windows Explorer: Any print option available?

["Peter Vidal" <Peter_Vidal@xxxxxxxx>]

"Hi Peter,

If what you're saying is you want to do a search in Windows Explorer and
then print the list of resuls, I'm afraid I can't help you. However, I can
suggest a simple way of gettting a listing of all the files in a folder
(and, optionally, all its subfolders).

Basically, you open a DOS window by Start -> Run -> CMD

then type:

dir dirname\ /b  > filename.txt

this will create a text file named "filename" that has all the files in
folder "dirname"

dir dirname\ /b /s > filename.txt

will add all the files in all subfolders under dirname.

when you're done, you can close the window by typing "exit".

It's not the greatest, but it's the best I've ever found for solutions
available natively in Windows (assuming that resorting to a DOS window
qualifies as being "native Windows"). I agree with whomever said that
there might be some freeware utility out there that does what you want --
a simple google search might be well worth the effort."

Based on this approach, how can I specify for a specific string ("ABC123") 
that I want to look into any of these files 
in this directory and then create the file for just with the files names 
with this value in it?
