So I've looked around for the answer and I'm just getting started with using c# so its probably simple, but I've got a block of code

private void btnAdd_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

 using (SaveFileDialog sfd = new SaveFileDialog() Filter = "TextDocuments)
 
 if (sfd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
 

 using (StreamWriter sw = new StreamWriter(sfd.FileName))
 
 sw.WriteLineAsync(txtMessage.Text);
 MessageBox.Show("Your entry has been saved successfully!", "Message", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Information);
 
 
 

What I want to know is how I'm meant to preset the filename as a date in this code?

c#
