Thanks for your help.
I have sorted out now.
I was not using Windows Me Notepad.exe
but a freeware Winpad.exe one. I did not
realised that it makes a difference.

AAH,

All I can suggest is that you try again. I have just followed the
instructions set out in KB272623 on a Win Me system and now have "Print
Directory Listing" as a right list option on folders and it appears to be
working as intended.

Does the content of the text file "Prin.bat" exactly match that in
KB272623?
Did you use copy and paste to create Prin.bat, if not, do so.
Did you place the file "Prin.bat" in the C:\Windows folder? If not, you
must do this.
Do you see "Print Directory Listing" as a right click option when you
select
a folder?

Hopefully you will find that you made a simple typing error and that it
now
works. By the way KB272623 contains a small error. Step 5 should be as
follows:
5. Click "Advanced", and then click "New"
