I'd rather alphabetize or use the folder tabs and then label the sub-folders. I'm working on getting my files digitized. Trying to figure out the best method for it, actually.

Holy hell, is that inefficient! When I had paper files, I would put categories in front of each label so "like" folders were grouped together. For example, I had "Medical - Eye Doctor" "Medical - Dentist" etc. Then all my folders were alphabetized. No need for a TOC. Now, however, all my records are fully-searchable PDFs, so if someone is really trying to save on space, I'd say: ditch the files altogether!
