    I have a DLL that is loaded by a framework(I dont have the sourcecode) and I need to determine the process id of the exe(framework) that loaded my dll. It is a standard dll so I have the hinstance/hmodule from the DLL_PROCESS_ATTACH in the dllmain, but have not found a way to determine the process id that is loading the dll. It is possible to have multiple frameworks running so I cant enumerate processes looking for the dll, becuse there may be multiple frameworks running with my dll. I have to determine the PID progamatically within each dll when loaded. Thanks....... :-)
