However this is from the command prompt and the filenames will be shortened to
8.3 format.

You can print to a text file.
Got to
Start, then Run
Type:cmd
Press enter.
Navigate to the folder you want listed.
Example:C:\Windows>
Type:dir >> c:\list.txt
The directory of the folder will be in the list.txt text file.

Part of the problem with doing a list this way in the vertual window is
that many times the filenames and folder names are truncated or cut off,
and I don't know how to avoid this. My window is maximized, and it
still happens.

I do not know of any program.
but you could try using the jaws command
insert key plus alt key plus letter W
to virtualize the screen you bring up in windows explorer that
show your files and folders.
In looking at this, I note That files and folders will show up
but only 28 to a page. after you virtualize the screen, you would have
to use control key plus letter A to highlight the text in this virtual
window and then use control key plus letter C to copy the virtualized
screen to the clipboard so you could then paste the text in notepad,
wordpad or word.
Unfortunatlly you would have to do this a number of times as
you only can get 28 items on each screen.
hope this helps but then someone may know of a program.
In any event, hopefully this post reminds us all of this little
trick Jaws provides us with to capture any screen including any error
message screens so we can read it.

hello list.
i have a large folder and would like to have a list made of the
contents of that folder that i can copy into either notepad or word.
on my old machine which was running xp i had a free program that
would make a list and i could copy it to a text document.
on this machine, windows 7 ultimate with jaws 11, does anyone
know of such a program?
any help is greatly appreciated.
