I would like to copy the file names from a folder without copying the files
themselves. I would like to put the file names in an Excel Spread***. Is
this possible?

Thanks for any help!

Try this:
1. Click Start / Run / cmd {OK}
2. Type these commands:
dir /s /b "c:\documents and Settings\NancyL" > c:\dir.txt{Enter}
notepad c:\dir.txt {Enter}

You can now copy & paste the file list into your Excel spread***.

The process can be automated along the lines of this KB article:
