Why not keep the returned (open) Stream?

As another poster pointed out, Create() not only creates the file, it
also opens it for writing.

> myFlexGrid.SaveGrid( saveFile, FileFormatEnum.TextComma );

The SaveGrid method probably tries to "reopen" the file, so it needs
to be closed. Or, if it's an API you control, try using the FileStream
you got from Create() instead of the name, and write to that.
