If you are not using the dialog then you have to use code to do it. How else did you think?

You could skip showing the dialog, but how do you then know that you have a valid and accessible destination to save the file into?

This is the code for saving a file directly without using dialog box.Now try it for yours..

// create reader & open file in C drive or your location
TextWriter tr = new StreamWriter(@"C:\" + "example.txt");

// read a line of text
tr.WriteLine(richTextBox1.Text);

// close the stream
tr.Close();

If you don't want a prompt, then you have to specify the path in your code directly.
