Re: Windows Explorer: Any print option available?

Hi Peter,

I don't think you can, though there may well be some trick I don't know.
You can pipe the output of FINDSTR to a file, but I don't think you can
include the name of the file being searched. I'm also not sure how you'd
loop through all the files in the folder -- that's where I would have used
something like qbasic ;-).

If you just want files whose _names_ contain "ABC123", then John Ross's
suggestion would work:

dir dirname\*ABC123*.* /b /s > filename.txt

or alternatively:

dir dirname\ /b /s > filename.txt
findstr "ABC123" filename.txt > filnam2.txt

Good luck!
