I wasn't aware of DirPrint. I've just installed it and it works a treat. It can not only print (including "printing" to a PDF file if you have one of the utilities that does that) but also output a text file, which seems to be what michaelr needs, as that text file can then be loaded into whatever other application you like, such as Word, Excel or LibreOffice.

BTW michaelr, apropos "... in alphabetical order because that's how Windows organizes folders": Windows Explorer offers you a wide choice of sort order. If you go View > Details and click any of the column headings the display is sorted by that attribute. If the headings don't include the particular attribute you want, right click and you're offered loads more possible columns.
