    Using file streams:
    Code:
    ofstream WriteFile;
    WriteFile.open("MyFile.txt", ios::out);
    if(!WriteFile.fail())
    {
       WriteFile << "Hello notepad!" << endl;
       WriteFile.close();
    }

    To let the user decide which file? (actually, I'm having a little trouble understanding what you mean).
    Use cin so the user can enter a filename:
    Code:
    char FileName[64];
    
    cout << "Enter a filename: ";
    cin >> FileName;
    
    WriteFile.open(FileName, ios::out | ios::trunc);
    
    etc...
