help with the SaveFileDialog()

jamie

I am a newbie to programming, but i am starting to get the hang of building forms. I know how to get a savefiledialog() to show, but what i haven't been able to figure out is how to use it. i will be using StreamWriter() to write to a txt file. just some simple output. How do i get the savefiledialog to save the info that i am trying to write to the file? can someone give me an example or code snippet?

string fileName;

saveFileDialog1.Filter = "Text|*.txt";

saveFileDialog1.DefaultExt = "Text|*.txt";

DialogResult dr = saveFileDialog1.ShowDialog();

if (dr == DialogResult.Cancel)

{

return;

}

fileName = saveFileDialog1.FileName;

StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(fileName);

sw.WriteLine(textBox1.Text);

sw.Flush();

sw.Close();
