You'll need to read Windows documentation.  

The difference between Process and ProcessID is that one is the result
of a call to the GetCurrentProcess function, and the other is the
result of a call to the GetCurrentProcessID function. 

Currently R has no way to get the list of MDI document windows.  I
think the function you want is EnumChildWindows, but you might need to
use EnumWindows.  I can't remember whether MDI documents are child
windows or top level windows.

If you do get all of this worked out nicely, contributions of patches
to R would be welcomed.  The file where this function lives is
src/gnuwin32/extra.c.
