  On my computer, I have a folder which contains many files. I want all these file names to be listed in an spreadsheet. How do I do that? DOes windows provide any facility for that?

  You can use the following java code part to get the names of files in particular directory and use FileWriter class to write the file names in a excel file
  File folder = new File("c:/");
  File[] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles();
  System.out.println("File " + listOfFiles.getName());

  Thanks for your reply. 😀
  
  BUT, I am totally unknown to Java and Filewriter and whatever they are.
  You might have to tell me in detail and in step by step to get these file names to excel (spreadsheet). And Yeah, I am little familiar with excel macros. Would that help in this task?

  This tool is very helpful to list down when we have more number of files, say in 100's in a folder. It is best when linking of it also enabled.

  Hi Conan,
  About which tool you are talking about? Please name it, I couldn't get it. 😕
  
  Thanks !
