// Declare variables.
WMSServer                       Server;
IWMSBroadcastPublishingPoint    BCPubPoint;
IWMSPublishingPoints            PubPoints;
IWMSPublishingPoint             PubPoint;

try {
    // Create a new WMSServer object.
    Server = new WMSServerClass();

    // Retrieve the IWMSPublishingPoints object.
    PubPoints = Server.PublishingPoints;

    // Retrieve each publishing point and retrieve the
    // IWMSBroadcastPublishingPoint object.
    for (int i = 0; i < PubPoints.Count; i++)
    {
        PubPoint = PubPoints[i];

        if (PubPoint.Type == 
            WMS_PUBLISHING_POINT_TYPE.WMS_PUBLISHING_POINT_TYPE_BROADCAST)
        {
            BCPubPoint = (IWMSBroadcastPublishingPoint)PubPoint;

            // Retrieve the current status of the publishing point.
            // The status is reported as the result of a bitwise OR
            // of any of the designated values.
            WMS_BROADCAST_PUBLISHING_POINT_STATUS ppsStatus;
            ppsStatus = BCPubPoint.BroadcastStatus;

            // Start or stop archiving data based on the current state.
            if (ppsStatus == WMS_BROADCAST_PUBLISHING_POINT_STATUS.WMS_BROADCAST_PUBLISHING_POINT_ARCHIVING)
            {
