My NSSavePanel is not saving the file. (OSX 10.5)

My NSSavePanel is not saving the file. I'm building an app for OSX 10.5

NSSavePanel *createPanel = [[NSSavePanel alloc] init];  
    [createPanel setCanCreateDirectories:YES];
    int result = [createPanel runModal];
    if (result == 1) {
        [lyricsFileField setStringValue:[createPanel filename]];
    }

I manually type the file name and I select the directory but the file is not saved.

Thanks

ps. How do I pass a file path to the panel ? (setNameFieldStringValue: is for > 10.6 only.)

NSSavePanel is not supposed to save file, it is for selecting the file, for what I know.

And there's a directory and filename properties or some such prior to 10.6.

You are not saving any file, You just change text in Your textField to Your location string. If You want to save the file You need to use this:

[data writeToFile:[createPanel filename] atomically: NO];

instead:

[lyricsFileField setStringValue:[createPanel filename]];
