That feature was added to the SaveFileDialog control in silverlight 5.  Here is a possible work around for silverlight 4 (I did not test):

private void nmrButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
SaveFileDialog dialog = new SaveFileDialog();
dialog.GetType().GetMethod("set_DefaultFileName").Invoke(dialog, new object[] { "FileName.ext" });
dialog.ShowDialog();
}

hi 

can u tell which item is getting null here...

Answer: 6

I have done like this:

SaveFileDialog objSFD = new SaveFileDialog() {
DefaultExt = "csv",
Filter = "CSV Files (*.csv)|*.csv|Excel XML (*.xml)|*.xml|All files (*.*)|*.*",
FilterIndex = 1
};

string item = TextBox.Text;

objSFD.GetType().GetMethod(item).Invoke(objSFD, new object[] { item });

Here item will contain text box value that value I want to keep as SaveDialogueBox default file name. Let me know  where I am doing wrong.
