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

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

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

    // Retrieve information about each publishing point.
    for (int i = 0; i < PubPoints.Count; i++)
    {
        PubPoint = PubPoints[i];

        // Retrieve the type of publishing point.
        WMS_PUBLISHING_POINT_TYPE pptType; 
        pptType = PubPoint.Type;

        if (pptType ==
