The only thing still missing from the great windows features... This is a free program which allows you to print a directory list. Works great and is simple to use. I just used it to print a list of all the songs in my MP3 folder for the music site. YES!

It is still coming with windows, I know it since working with DOS:
Open a command prompt (e.g. C:\window\system32/cmd.exe), type
dir /s [path] > [anotherpath\]filename.txt

Very true, but most people do not feel comfortable working with DOS commands, except maybe for us "techies". 
There is no way to simply do this from a window, and after all this time, I still find this inexcusable on the part of Microsoft. They really need to get with the "program". Come on MS!
