My music collection of MP3 files is stored on my D drive on my PC, running Windows XP.
I would like to be able to see all the files (currently just over 9000) displayed in explorer as a list.
Is it possible and if so, how?

If they are all in the one folder it is easy. Just open the folder then on the menu click View then click on List.

However, if they are spread over 2 or more folders, I cant think of a way to display them all as a single list in explorer.

Unfortunately Geoff I have the hard drive set up as
ARTIST
ALBUM
TRACKS
There are over 300 artist folders!
The only way I have managed to get a list of all the files was to just do a search for all MP3 files.
This worked OK but did not list them in any particular order
Open Windows Explorer
Hold down Ctrl and type the letter F
Set "Look in" to "Local Hard Drives
Search for files or folders named *.mp3

I have already tried that rojash, as I said above but it only lists all the MP3 files on the drive. What I want to do is display them all but in the order ARTIST, ALBUMS, TRACKS

QUICK UPDATE
managed to get somewhere close by mucking about with details and list but not exactly what I'm after.
