Well then, in your description you are -
opening the socket
once open, writing to the socket
once written, closing the socket

You probably want to have something like -

on messageWritten theIP

     read from socket theIP until linefeed with message "storeData"

end messageWritten
----------
on storeData theIP, theMessage
	Put theMessage into field "resultField"
end storeData

Generally, you will keep going back and reading, until some condition 
tells your software to stop that. So the storeData handler may well 
make a new call to "read from socket..." again, etc.
