You can use various options with FINDSTR to remove the lines do not want  like so   DIR  S   FINDSTR   -    FINDSTR  VI DIR   Normal output contains entries like these   28-Aug-14  05 14 PM     lt DIR gt             28-Aug-14  05 14 PM     lt DIR gt                You could remove these using the various filtering options offered by FINDSTR  You can also use the excellent unxutils  but it converts the output to UNIX by default  so you no longer get CR LF  FINDSTR offers the best Windows option
