Why can't filesavedialogbox be used, but your imaginary filecreatedialogbox? You'll get the full file path from the regular filesavedialogbox, and you set the FileMode in the FileStream to CreateNew if that is the issue.

SaveFileDialog just gives you a file name, it's up to you to use the filename and create the file.

See the documentation : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.savefiledialog.aspx[^]
