You use open a DOS window and use the DIR command to create a text file 
which could then be manipulated in Excel with some simple filtering and 
formulae to give you whatever information you want.

For example,
	dir c:\windows /og-s /s /v >c:\temp\tree.txt
creates a text file called tree.txt in the C:\Temp directory. The file 
contains a listing of all files in the Windows directory and sub-
directories thereof. Thes are sorted in decreasing size order with 
directories grouped first, giving full details of the files: 
e.g. DOS File Name (8.3), Actual Data Size, File Size Allocated, Date 
Modified, Last Accessed, File Attributes and Long Name.

Use DIR /? to get help on the switches.
