Batch file help... determine drive it is run from
This problem is very trivial, but I have been searching all over the place and haven't found an answer. I have a batch file that works on its own. My installer has to call use batch code rather than calling the external batch file, which looks like: START directory\directory\directory\program.

I have a batch file that works on its own. My installer has to call use batch code rather than calling the external batch file, which looks like:
START directory\directory\directory\program.exe -param -param param_directory\param_jarfile.jar
This code works fine from the batch.bat file, but from the installer I get an error that the executable cannot be found.
How can I determine the drive the batch file was run from? Given the drive letter I should be able to build the string necessary for the START command to open the file.
