Variable for "this computer"

I have a silent installation package that goes out to a server and then
copies the files to the local system. I want to have a self-installation exe
that will extract the files to the local system and then run a specific file
on that local system instead of the program going out to the server to copy
files down to local machine. Would I be able to use a variable that says use
this computer instead of going to that server?

Thanks a bunch.

Found the answer - %homedrive%, %temp% seem to work great.
