Creating Index for folders filled with forms

I really have no idea if I am even asking this in the correct forum. I was just hoping to receive some help with this project I am working on.

Basically I am collecting all of the forms our company has and standardizing them so that all of the offices will use the same form. I have them saved on our server in their own folders (Operations, Clinical, HR, Billing) which all of the offices will be able to access. All i have to do is put them in the scanner and select the "Forms" folder which is on one of our servers and it directly saves it there. Then I can go into the folder from my computer and edit or move around the forms as needed.

I need to create an index for these forms. Basically I need to write something that will format an index the way I want it to be formated. Just a pdf or a word document that people can open up and see:

"Clinical
Patient information form (8/14)
Patient consent form(7/14)

Operations
Fax Cover sheet.(8/27)"

The dates are the day the form was updated.

It would be great if it could have links to the forms within the index but its not necessary.

I don't know if I need a database or where to even begin.

I could just manually create an index but everytime a form was updated or a form was added I would have to open the index up and add it in there. So if I had an index that would go in and sort everything by folder name and then just place the filename of the form then this wouldnt be a problem when I leave this office in a year and someone else adds a form.

If I am in the wrong place could someone please direct me to a place that could help?

depends on what server side code your server can run.
