Export the list of files in a folder in the Explorer

How to export a list of files that that are in an excel file or a text document? Preferably excel.

Thank you

Tom

You must have the directory you want the list on your hard drive (not a network share even if a mapped drive may work?

Files should be displayed in the format of details in the directory.

(1) type cmd in the start menu to bring up a prompt back
(2) use the (for example) "cd C:\Users\BobJones\Desktop\New folder" command to navigate to the folder in question
(3) use the command "DIR > doggy.csv ' to create a file named doggy.csv in the same directory that you open directly with excel. Nothing looks much lik that it happens, but you unlike find the small file as expected.

Good luck!

    Hi all

    My plugin has a list of .ai files in the user interface of the folder C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS4\Plug - ins\Illustrator Filters\MyPlugin.

    What are the APIs available in artificial intelligence to get the list of files in a folder?

    If you want to enumerate files in a directory, you have to use the OS APIs. I does not provide for this. There are different ways to find important files/directories related to AI, but nothing else.

    The APIs to do this in the operating system are usually pretty easy to use but. Annoying if you try to hit Mac and Windows, but a little care in the design of your interface and hide the worst.

  • List of files in a folder in a text list

    Read it please I want to make a list of files within a folder.
    I can do Dir C:\Cab, but as the cottage:

    27/07/2012 13:02 .
    13/04/2012 06:58 6 819 abc.py
    19/04/2012 the 17 433 07:44 about.png
    13/04/2012 the 6 800 aboutDialog.py 06:59

    19/04/2012 acc.dll 716 288 08:41

    I wonder if it is not run this command and get just the names of the exported without the size files date ect

    Or better if there is a way to send a text with directory document here in from them would be exit 1

    Filename C:\Cab\

    The reason im trying to understand this is that I have about 3500 files that I want to put in a cab file and I don't want to alter each line because it would take FOREVER!

    Sure.

    Just enter the command:

    dir /b /s C:\Cab > outfile.txt

    This simply gives you a list of files in the C:\Cab directory and put the list in the file "outfile.txt".
    The "/ s" will include subdirectories and will also give full paths

    Here are four ways:

    1. go to a command prompt and run the command

    dir [drive: folder] > c:\tempfilename (you can use any name and put
    in any folder of your choice)

    Then open Notepad, open tempfilename and print from there.

    2. write (for example, in Notepad), a text line 1:
    / DIR %1 > LPT1:

    Save it as 'printdir.bat' in the folder ' send to '.

    Then, to print the list of files in any folder, right click on this folder
    and select send to | Printdir.bat

    To include subfolders, set up the command DIR %1/O/S > LPT1:

  • How to copy a LIST fo file to a folder

    I have a folder with many files.

    I am establishing a registry of document and want to copy all the title/file name in a table of worksheet or a Word, then I can add columns of information about the content of the file.

    How do I select all the files in this folder and paste the file NAMES into a document?

    Thank you

    Dave

    Here are two ways to do:

    1. to view the hierarchy of folders, open Windows Explorer, navigate to the folder that you want to start on, hold down the SHIFT key, right-click on the name of the folder and choose command window open here. Tree type. clip and press ENTER. Open your program of processing (or Notepad) and paste (Ctrl + V) the list to her. You can now print, edit, or save.

    To view the files in each folder, type tree /f | clip and press ENTER.

    2. open Windows Explorer, navigate to the source folder and press Ctrl + A to select all items. Hold down the SHIFT key, right-click on the selection and choose copy in the path. Open your spreadsheet (or processing) program, paste (Ctrl + V) the list to it and adjust the width of the column. You can now print, edit or save it and add to it later.

  • How to get Automator to export a list of file names in an Excel workbook?

    I have a spreadsheet with all the file names of my Sibelius (.sib) scores without import/y attach files to a 2011 Excel workbook. I tried different ways to help automate it, but it seems to only be able to export .txt files in Excel. On some combinations, I tried, even lets link you to files that I'm not interested by - all I want is a list (editable preference) of my file names so that you can see them all in one area and check what I have / I do not have.

    I use Yosemite 10.10.5 (I don't want to upgrade to El Capitan due to driver compatibility issues) and Microsoft Office for Mac 2011.

    Any help would be appreciated

    I can't help you with Automator, but there is a solution.

    1. launch Firefox.

    2. drag the folder with the files in the Firefox window. (The example is a folder of image files)

    3 - Select all the entries on the page in Firefox:


    4 - Open Excel and paste it into a spreadsheet:

    5 - remove the size and last modified columns. To remove the links reformat the text column.

    > You can use the built-in getNthFilenameInFolder()

    I could have been more specific:
    --
    on the trail of mGetFileList
    tList =]
    Repeat with f = 1 in the maxInteger
    tFilename = getNthFilenameInFolder (path, f)
    If tFilename = EMPTY then exit

    end repeat

  • Research of Windows 8 is rubbish, cannot find the files in a folder

    It makes me a little crazy.

    I'm looking on a list of files in a folder - I enter a search string that matches one of the file names, and still win 8 search tells me 'no element doesn't match your search' which is total garbage that I can see the file in the folder.

    I also noticed that as soon as I add a folder to the index, I can pick up is no longer the case! There where previously I would get some results, I then none after you add the file in the index list.

    What is going on!?!

    How to get Windows 8 to search my files in a folder? Really, is it that hard? I don't even mean the content of the file, just the names of files, and still win 8 search does not always work.

    Windows 7 search just worked! Why MS, why change?

    So now, I have to just decide if it's worth to give B a different drive letter. But thanks for pointing me in a useful direction.

    Probably not.  Someone else had a similar problem with a player that they had tagged A: and supposedly they tested using a different letter.  The problem was to search all access to this drive.
