Dir list of files only,no subfolder

Never mind, I figured it out: dir /a:-d /b i:\testfolder\

The DOS DIR command was not originally designed to do something link that. But in later versions, the ability to do that was added. Quite simple and obvious if you just bother to look at at the DIR command syntax. DIR /? The exact command depends on what you want. If you want all files including the hidden files to be listed, but not the folders do: DIR /a-d If you only want the files a plain DIR commond would list and not the folders, use: DIR /a-d-h Keep in mind, this will not work on the oldest versons of DOS.

I don't know if this syntax will work on ANY version of DOS: dir /ax where x is the attrubute This syntax: dir /a:-d will work in w2k but the colon is unnecessary. *** Turning our attention once again to DOS. The usual gambit is to whack out the unwanted stuff using find /v M2 If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.
