VBS Getting its Process ID

I know I must be missing it in the documentation, but I
can't find it. Is there are way for a VBS script to
determine its process ID?

There may be multiple wscript.exe running, so I can't
just look for wscript.exe in the process table. If I was
running XP, I am running NT, I could use the CommandLine
Parameter.

Thanks for any help you could provide,

Bryan

Hi,

Sorry, I overlooked that you were running NT. As you note, some of these
alternatives may not be available to you.

Thanks for the input, what I finaly ended up doing was
executing CMD.EXE via WshShell.Exec which returned an
WshScriptExec object. One of the Properties of the
WshScriptExec object is the ProccesID of the command. I
took that PID and went through WMI until I found the
matching PID. Once I had the correct WMI object I read
the ParentProcessID property, which gave me the
information I was looking for. Finally I terminated the
CMD.exe via the WshScriptExe.Terminate method.
