You can use the MS-DOS prompt to generate a file to insert into
Word.
1. cd/[folder path name]
2. dir /b > temp.txt
This is a directory listing with a bare format (nothing but the
file name) redirected to a text file
3. Open word, and insert the temp.txt file
Your word document will now have the names of all the files in the
folder.
