Using InfoPath 2007, I would like to include a Button for "SAVE" where the
user can save the form (filled or partially filled) to his/her own PC to
retrieve later before submitting. How can I achieve this function?

Why do you need a button? What's wrong with File | Save. If you need to inform the users that it exists, a small message in the view should suffice.

If you really need the button you'll need to move your form to Full Trust security, and you might need to deal with clearing the error board, and possibly restoring it (requiring code). Personally, I wouldn't think all that is worth it.
