File list using DIR

[highandwild]

I'm trying to output, to a text file, a list of files in a folder and its sub-folders in a one line per file format with
date, size and folder name.

I've fiddled around with various switches but I have not got there yet.

Any ideas anybody?

Thanks

Run DIR in a FOR /F loop and use the modifiers of FOR variables to expand them to the data you need.

Code: Select all

for /f "delims=" %%i in ('dir /a /b /s "c:\your\folder"') do echo "%%~nxi" %%~ti %%~zi "%%~dpi"

+1 but use /a-d instead of /a in the dir command, to eliminate folders.

Redirect the output of aGerman's code to a text file.

The only other thing I saw was "FindFileFirst", but I can't seem to get that to work at all.
So, my question is, how do I get the names of folders using "Dir()"?
