Is there any possibility to get the contents of a system environment variable
for example the %temp% variable into a labtalk variable?
Thanks in advance

You can access system environment variables from Origin using the run -e command to create an INI file containing those variables and then accessing them with the INI object.
## Create INI file. %A depends on your OS
## %A=command.com; // If OS is Win9x (or WinMe? not sure)
## %A=cmd.exe; // if OS is NT4, Win2k or WinXP
run -e %A /C echo [Variables]>%Ywin.ini; // Create file and section header
sec -p 0.1; // Give the command time to complete before continuing
run -e %A /C set >> %Ywin.ini; // Copy environment variables to file
sec -p 0.1; // Pause again
## Variables can now be treated as INI keys
ini.file$=%Ywin.ini;
%A=ini.Variables.windir$;
%A=; // get windows directory, for example
Hope that helps.

There is no access to system environment variables, except for the one you mention specifically : %TEMP%.
You can get this variable with:
system.path.findtemp(L);
which puts the %TEMP% environment variable in the %L LabTalk string variable.
