Retrieve CD TOC into EXCEL
Hi! Does anyone have any idea how could I retrieve the TOC (table O Content) of a CD form EXCEL directly? What I want to do, is get th contents of a CD from freedb.org and import them into my CD database i EXCEL. Now I have the part to retrieve the data from freedb almos ready, but for it to be working I need to get the TOC. I have found a VB5 and VB6 code to do that, but I do not know how t convert that to VBA for EXCEL. Thank you for any help, G -- Max_Lame ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Max_Lamer's Profile: http://www.excelforum.com/member.php...fo&userid=1541 View this thread: http://www.excelforum.com/showthread.php?threadid=27022 |
Retrieve CD TOC into EXCEL

You just want a list of what files are on the CD, right? 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. Gord Dibben Excel MVP On Mon, 18 Oct 2004 13:20:40 -0500, Max_Lamer wrote: Hi!
