RE: Generating Directory Lists (Was: Referenced Graphics)



If you know a little MS Access, you can set up a mini-program to 
automatically delete your unused files. You can use the RunApp
command in a macro to create your lists of files in your directories
(just type the DOS command in the RunApp parameter box). You can 
then import those and your generated list of included graphics 
files into an Access table. Then run a "find unmatched" query to 
generate a table of orphaned graphics. Finally, wrap the query 
output in a report that contains "delete " as a preface to each 
orphaned graphic, save the report as a text batch file, and run 
the batch file. 

All our graphics are under source control, or I'd be doing this
myself....
