I want the users to type their text in the given textbox and on clicking on createNewFile Button, a SaveAs Dialogbox should popup and the users should browse through the location and save the file as desired.

I have tried some thing but
(1) the dialog box goes behind the application
(2) when run, dialogbox opens 3 times, means it executes 3 times

    protected void btnNewFile_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        StreamWriter sw = null;
        try
        {
            SaveFileDialog sdlg = new SaveFileDialog();
            DialogResult result = sdlg.ShowDialog();
            sdlg.InitialDirectory = @"C:\";
            sdlg.AddExtension = true;
            sdlg.CheckPathExists = true;
            sdlg.CreatePrompt = false;
            sdlg.OverwritePrompt = true;
            sdlg.ValidateNames = true;
            sdlg.ShowHelp = true;
            sdlg.DefaultExt = "txt";
            //   sdlg.ShowDialog = Form.ActiveForm;
            string file = sdlg.FileName.ToString();
            string data = txtNewFile.Text;


            if (sdlg.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
            {
                sw.WriteLine(txtNewFile.Text);
                sw.Close();
            }

            if (sdlg.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.Cancel)
            { sw.Dispose(); }
            //Save(file, data);


        }
        catch
        { }
        finally
        {
            if (sw != null)
            {
                sw.Close();
            }
        }
    }

    private void Save(string file, string data)
    {
        StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(file);
        SaveFileDialog sdlg1 = new SaveFileDialog();

        try
        {
            if (sdlg1.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
            {
                writer.Write(data);
                writer.Close();
            }
            else
                writer.Dispose();
        }
        catch (Exception xp)
        {
            MessageBox.Show(xp.Message);
        }
        finally
        {
            if (writer != null)
            {
                writer.Close();
            }
        }
    }
