Find my own process ID in VBScript

Question

I\'m using the following code snippet to determine what process ID my vbscript is running as:

On Error Resume Next
Dim iMyPID : iMyPID = GetObject(\"winmgmts

Here is a better one, but in JScript (sorry, you translate it to VB ...)

var WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
var objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\\\.\\root\\cimv2");
var childProcess =
    WshShell.Exec
    (
        '"' + WshShell.Environment('PROCESS')('ComSpec') + '"'
        +
        " /C Echo \"Text lines\" && Set /p VarName="
    );
childProcess.StdOut.ReadLine();
var current_pid =
    objWMIService.ExecQuery
        (
        "Select * From Win32_Process Where ProcessId=" + childProcess.ProcessID
        );
current_pid = (new Enumerator(current_pid)).item().ParentProcessId;
if (current_pid)
{
    childProcess.StdIn.WriteLine("value");  // child process should now exit
    WScript.Echo("Current PID: " + current_pid);
}
else
{
    WScript.StdErr.WriteLine("Get current PID from WMI failed.");
    WScript.Quit(7);
}
