TFS Team Build eventually calls MSBuild to perform the build. Local VS eventually calls MSBuild to perform the build.
You'll want to determine whether there are TFS specific properties that are passed to the solution to build (and thus are available in the .wixproj). You'll then want to update the .wixproj in question to pass that value as a preprocessor constant (DefineConstants) or use the value in some way to define a preprocessor constant that you can use in the .wxi. Perhaps your problem could be solved by using project references. http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/votive_project_references.htm I find $(var.ProjectName.ProjectDir), $(var.ProjectName.TargetDir), and $(var.ProjectName.SolutionDir) particularly useful.
