Re: Visual C# - Save File

ok i looked around a bit more and found the code ( listed below) but it dosent tell me were to put it. does any one know?


Note:
- It does not go in the save file dialog.
- It does not go in the button that runs the save file dialog.

Code:
// create a file stream, where "c:\\testing.txt" is the file path
			System.IO.FileStream fs = new System.IO.FileStream("c:\\testing.txt", System.IO.FileMode.OpenOrCreate, System.IO.FileAccess.Write, System.IO.FileShare.ReadWrite);

			// create a stream writer
			System.IO.StreamWriter sw = new System.IO.StreamWriter(fs, System.Text.Encoding.ASCII);

			// write to file (buffer), where textbox1 is your text box
			sw.Write(txtDestination.Text);

			// flush buffer (so the text really goes into the file)
			sw.Flush();

			// close stream writer and file
			sw.Close();fs.Close();

Re: Visual C# - Save File

Your first code box gets the filename from the user, your second code box actually saves the file. However, you'll need to replace "c:\\testing.txt" with saveFileDialog1.FileName. I assume txtDestination.Text has the contents of whatever you're trying to save.
