sfd.AutoUpgradeEnabled = false;
                   sfd.InitialDirectory = @"d\temp";
                   if (sfd.ShowDialog(this)== DialogResult.OK)
                   {
                      // MessageBox.Show(DialogResult.OK.ToString());
                       string fileSavePath = sfd.FileName;

Put a colon in:

C#

sfd.InitialDirectory = @"d\temp";

Becomes

C#

sfd.InitialDirectory = @"d:\temp";

Otherwise it is a relative directory (based onteh last folder used or the current app directory) which if it doesn't exist will be ignored.

when I use "sfd.AutoUpgradeEnabled = true;" ,it show in a defualt path(not d:\temp);when I use "sfd.AutoUpgradeEnabled = false;" it show in the current app directory;It seems that sfd.InitialDirectory = @"d:\temp"; doesn't do anyting!!!

if it doesn't exist will be ignored. This is the answer.
At first,I think if it doesn't exist,it will create it automatically.
Thank you ,OriginalGriff!
