I would like to redirect a listing of directories to a file that I can then
import into Excel. I have multiple directories of image files and need to
back them up to a DVD. I also need to track which directories I have backed
up and which still need to be backed up. I thought that if I could redirect
the list of directories to an excel file, this would make an easy tracking
mechanism for me.

Any help on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

TIA

Earl
