Example

This Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) program shows how to use the ProcessID property to determine the process ID for the current instance of Visio.

Sub ProcessID_Example ()

    Dim vsoApplication As Visio.Application

    'Get the current instance of Microsoft Office Visio.
    Set vsoApplication = Visio.Application

    'Prints the Process ID in the Immediate window. 
    Debug.Print "Visio Process ID : "; vsoApplication.ProcessID

End Sub
