Sub ProcessID_Example () 
 
    Dim vsoApplication As Visio.Application 
 
    'Get the current instance of Microsoft Office Visio. 
    Set vsoApplication = Visio.Application 
 
    'Prints the unique ID of the current Visio process.  
    Debug.Print "Visio Process identifier: "; vsoApplication.ProcessID 
 
End Sub
