dir - This will give you a listing of all files
/s - includes subdirectories (Folders)
c: - Tells it which drive letter and where to start
> - redirects the output to a file instead of a screen
c-files.txt - just a file name I made up for this example.

If this doesn't help or you are looking for something more specific I will gladly answer any question.
I use this method when trying to backup data to CD-Rs - mostly when trying to sort MP3s.

Other DOS commands work also. Try 'TREE" to get an ASCII copy of the Explorer file display.
