Printing the icons in windows explorer?

webe3 · 09-12-2004, 04:12 AM

OK, this is what I want to do, but I am not sure what steps I need to take to get this accomplished. What I am trying to do, is print out the names of the .mp3 songs that I have on a DVD that I created with the "drag to disk" storage system on easy cd creator. (NOTE: "drag to disk" used to be called "direct cd" and does basically the same thing. Basically a packet writing program for storage of files so that you can use a cd the same way you would a hard drive.) I use windows explorer to open the DVD and then can play the files at my leisure, but I want to make a paper list of all the songs that I have, so I don't have to look on the DVD every time I need to see if I already have a song on there or not.

How do I do this? Do I need to take a screenshot or something?? Remember, I am working from windows explorer and have win xp pro with SP2 final installed. Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance for any help you can give.

I would use a word processor to mark up the names like you prefer, then fetch the filenames using a command line (start | run | cmd) doing a dir /b /s (I might recall this wrong) on the directory where your files are.

A small useful utility called The Godfather sounds like a good decision to you.. I myself use it for renaming and tagging of songs, but it has more than than (cataloguing including)
