Command prompt DIR - get specific fields of information (SharePoint 2007 site)

I have a SharePoint 2007 site we are migrating and I am trying to extract all folders and files within a map network drive for the site using the command prompt and export a text file.

The fields I want to display are the full field path, the last modified date of the file, and the content owner.

Preferably separated by a comma or other character to parse after export.

Any suggestions?

Regards,

Open cmd.exe and type DIR /?

Full path, last modified date, owner and more are all available.

DIR *.* > File.txt puts the output in a file for you.

What if you want all subfolders and their content as well (including the path?) is it just adding /s?

John

If that is all you wanted, just add /s

But you can add other parameters to get more information in the same pass for a file.

Run a few tests interactively (not to a file) to see how it works.

The only issue with this method is it shows the path and then all of the files within. is there a way to display the path on the same line as the actual files themselves?

01/01/2016 X:\systems\samplefile.doc <Owner>

versus

x:\systems\

01/01/2016 12:15 AM <DIR> 1,000 samplefile.doc

Yes. DIR /s /b Then everything is on one line. Works fine.
