Several methods to accomplish this.......I like Tushar's best.
To add a "Print Directory" feature to Explorer, go to
this KB Article.
http://support.microsoft.com/default...EN-US;q272623&
Or you can download Printfolder 1.2 from.....
http://no-nonsense-software.com/freeware/
I use PF 1.2 and find it to be more than adequate with custom features.
OR Go to DOS(Command) prompt and directory.
Type DIR MYFILES.TXT
All the above create a *.TXT file which can be opened in Excel.
One more method if you want to by-pass the *.TXT file and pull directly to
Excel is to use Tushar Mehta's Excel Add-in. This allows filtering and
sorting once you have the data in Excel.
http://www.tushar-mehta.com/ scroll down to Add-insDirectory Listing.
Download the ZIP file and un-zip to your Office\Library folder.
As to the second part of mission........the updating part......I think you
would just have to re-import all filenames again from the folder.
