PC copy and paste question

Is there any way I can copy and paste the contents of a folder into Microsoft Word?</p>

Every time I try to do it, PC freezes and all action has to be terminated.</p>

TIA</p>

 

You mean, as in a list of the folder?

If it was a macintosh, then it would work (as a list), but you'll need some third party software to produce a folder list as text.

 

filenames of the contents or the actual content text, html, picturesetc

 

Or you could do it from a DOS prompt.

CD to the directory and 'DIR > c:\list.txt'

 

If its filenames I use Total Commander

in fact i use Total Commander as a replacement for explorer you can use it as a shareware version.</p>

This is what I'm trying to do

I have burnt a load of MP3 files from a folderonto a disc which will play in an MP3 player.</p>

What I want to do now is create a separate list of the songson the disc to put with it. The easiest way would be just to copy and paste the file list contents onto a sheet and print it off, but I can't seem to do this.</p>

If I can't then it looks like typing them all out onto a sheet, and there's an awful lot.I just wondered if there was another way.</p>

 

I suppose you could press the print screen button, and paste into a word document, then crop the image to make it look like a list, if you get my meaning.

 

use a mp3 tag editor

This will let you import all the file names into an excel spreadsheet
