Non-alphabetical File Listing

[cschoeps]

Hi,

I have a list of 134 Folders with varying names, and I need to read a text list of these names into a program (Matlab) in order to do analysis on files in each of the folders. Unfortunately, I need to have the folders arranged by how many files are in each.

So far I've found a program to order my folders by number of contents, and batch file that lets me create file listings. This batch file, however, spits out an alphabetical list every time.

Is there anyway to capture a list of folder names from Explorer in the order that they are displayed on the screen? Any help would be greatly appreciated, typing in 134 folder names to a text file is not something I want to do
