Glad to hear that, because offhand I can't think of a way to
suppress the subdirectories in the list without also killing the
filesize.

Thanks, Gene...I was able to convince the RE guys to accept a file
output with directories. With that, I went with the following DOS
command line..I needed the file size, which /B kills:

dir /a-d /on /s > c:\temp\filename.txt
