Windows Explorer does not have such a command, but other applications
can serve the purpose. 

Mijenix's Power Desk has considerably more power and flexibility, and
one can select from the File menu 

	Print - File list 
or 
	Print - Tree list

There must be other utilities that fill in deficiencies of Windows
Explorer, perhaps XTree Gold or one of the many free or shareware
programs in TuCows, WinSite, Simtel archives, or other collections.
