The best drive search tools are those that search the MFT (Master File Table)
on NTFS volumes rather than iterating through the file system itself. It's like
the difference between finding records in a DBF using the index as opposed to
scanning each record individually.
Two free examples are
I use Nirsoft Searchmyfiles for searching by file names, for duplicate
files, for non-duplicates, for files containing a string, many options,
great tool. He has other really useful tools 8-)

The easiest would probably be to fire a DIR command from your application:
DIR SpecificDir\*.* /ON > specdir.txt // Order by Name
DIR OtherDir\*.* /ON > otherdir.txt
Then read the TXT files and compare the filenames after extracting it
from lines.
Since I am not a VFP but a Clipper/VO/X#
A directory based file structure is a tree structure.
There is no implied way to unfold a tree structure without recurse.
And recurse is not a one-level action.
So it cannot exist a file skeleton, acting on a solely level, to impact
other levels.

Hello.
Using the windows command prompt, you can :
dir "/[the_search_root_path]/*.*" /s /b /A-d | find /V
"/[the_path_you_want_to_exclude]/" > /[your_output_text_file]
