Simple Data Exchange

Description

The sample detects whether an event is open or not. If the event is not open the program creates an event and adds a string to shared memory. It then waits. You then must run the program a second time. This process will find the event, read the string form the shared memory signal to the other program that it has completed, and then shut itself down. The other program having been signaled will also shut itself down
