Here is a simple palette. The only important thing about this is that on creating this we assign the NotebookObject to a parameter-- really this could be any notebook, not just a palette. (M 6) In[52]:= nb = CreatePalette[Button["Close", NotebookClose[ButtonNotebook[]]]] (M 6) Out[52]= (NotebookObject[FrontEndObject[LinkObject["ParentLink", 1, 1]], 1874]) Now execute NotebookSave on this NotebookObject. The standard "Save"dialog will come up and you can choose where to put it. (M 6) In[53]:= NotebookSave[nb] Now this palette is where you put it on your system. If you want to install it so that Mathematica knows of its existence thought the Palettes Menu you can now use the "Palettes>Install Palette..." menu item to let Mathematica place the palette that you just created in an appropriate place for Mathematica to access it.
