8) Using Windows Explorer, run signalprog.exe and slider.exe. You see
these two Visual Basic applications.
The slider.exe program must be started after RTDX is enabled and the
program is running because it creates and opens the RTDX control
channel when you run the program. If RTDX is not enabled at this point,
slider.exe cannot open the channel.
