Example 1 (Confirm running of a TCP Server):
This example uses Message Box to confirm that a TCP Server has to be started. The running of the TCP server is signaled when a variable named EnableServer with Boolean as data type is set as "True". A notice is then displayed that the server has been successfully started via Message Box.
