This advice have really helped me! But I just want to say that it's handier to convert this batch file to EXE if you want to run it on many PCs. I used Dr.Batcher ( http://www.drbatcher.com ) to convert it. Thanks a lot! This advice have really helped me!

I really need to find a way. I have a folder named karaoke. I guess that specifies itself. And I need to find a way to make a list of all the files in the file karaoke and the files in the subfolders too. I'll buy you a beer, or a case,for sure.
