You just need to write the string into text file and store it at desired path. Suppose your data is in string strValue:

C#

string strValue = "your data";

FileStream fs = new FileStream("D:\\test.txt", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write);
StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(fs);
sw.BaseStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.End);
sw.WriteLine(strValue);
sw.Flush();
sw.Close();

this will create a file test.txt in your D drive if it doesn't exist. otherwise it will append. if u don't want to append and create new file everytime, you can just delete before writing.

C#

if (File.Exists("D:\\test.txt");
	File.Delete("D:\\test.txt");

Inclue System.IO namespace.
