I have a back up of my Midies on my pc. I want to copy the titles to a text playlist without manually typing it.

Obviously, if I try and copy the list, it will copy the title and the Midi itself.

If all else fails, how about a screen capture? (I'm a Mac guy, so can't really advise about a program for PC).

I use the one available here http://www.spadixbd.com/freetools/ (third one on the list on the left) it is free, basic but prints a text file of any directory...

Thanks Diki

It wouldn't be editable, but, like you say, it is worth a try as a last resort.

Thanks Dennis

It's a lot of keystrokes, but you can highlight the midi FILE name, and "right click" as if you were changing the name - copy and paste to the new location.

Thanks UD

I ended up downloading a free screen capture, printed the JPEG captures, reduced them on my printer, and re-scanned to the PC.

wow, what a convoluted process!! for such a simple task..oh well if you are happy with it...that's all that matters. Did you actually TRY that little app Bernie?

Doesn't the computer OS have a built-in screen capture? Why the need for an app?

Betcha there's a keyboard shortcut that does whole or partial screen capture, and a variety of file-type outputs. My Mac does!

The one I suggested does not even install Diki, double click the program, select your folder, select what you want to print (from 4 radio buttons) and click okay..

Instant text file in list format...But Bernie obviously wanted more than just a text file - although that was the original request

Windows has a built in app called Snipping Tool which does the same job as any screen capture program and allows the saving in jpeg gif and png formats. If one then uses a free PDF printer this can then be "printed" to a PDF if one desires. I use PDF Creator.
