Your first post leads to an advert.
Even if thinly disguised, it's still an ad.
You're lucky you still have an account!

Not all of them. We get a lot of spam, some of it is as you describe - particularly the live streaming rubbish - but not all of it is by a long shot. Some of it is educated, scholarly stuff which just happens to be for a paid product which looks like an adequate article. Some of it is site driver or "external link" count booster. We're all getting pretty good at spotting this kind of thing.

I apologize for my reaction earlier and I am coming to terms with how it my original post may have come off as spammy.
I did say "Hi All!" since I wasn't sure how to great the users of CodeProject in a snappy way. Saying "Hi Code Projecter's" seemed wrong.
I promise I had no intention of using my post to promote my software. I couldn't sidestep in showing my website and tour video, while at the same time looking for feedback.
It looks like the response is understandable considering the horrendous amount of spam there is all over the internet.

"Hi All!" is fine.
Personally, you can pretty much call me what you want to, as long as it isn't late for lunch...
Welcome aboard! The exits are located here, here and here, and the sick bags are in the pouch in the back of the PC in front of you. (You may need that if you ever get an MVP award...)

First off, your message comes across a bit 'spammy' so is unlikely to survive.
I had a quick look at your website and feel it is safe to say that you will never get a purchase.
For all it does, even in an app store, it wouldn't be valued at more than 50 cents. It doesn't do enough to justify a price, it is the sort of thing that is thrown together as a one off tool and given away.
Just take a look at my articles and the apps/tools I have written, and they are all given away.
Look at some of the other users of codeproject, e.g. dan.g Todo list, again free.

That is understandable. I made it with myself in mind, not at all as something I would expect plenty of people to use. I did overestimate how successful it might be, but I know there are going to be at least some people who will find it useful.
It is not just a simple tool, nor was it something thrown together. I use software just like that on a occasion, and I am grateful it exists and understand why it is free (with support for donations usually). I feel Rolling Total is definitely more complex than ToDo apps and other similar software.
I feel as though now Rolling Total's future may lead into becoming freeware by the response. Not that I feel as though it's not worth a cost (there is also a time-unlimited demo available with some restrictions such as no ability to save).

Indeed it is, but to me there is something to be said about the complexity and the non-native Windows look of it.
I see what you mean though, it's fully featured (and more) yet open source.

I think you better learn how to make links clickable. It is not as if there is a button for it in the message editor

You are rigth. Ok here it is not realy important. But in q&a, how can I refer to an other answer and also to an other member?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, it is just as important here as anywhere else.
Veni, vidi, abiit domum

Then please guide me how to do. In q&a a link to e.g. a wiki page or what else I'm able to do....even sometimes I think the editor is against me 
But e.g. how I can make a link to "solution #x"
thx for help, Bruno

Select the text and click on the link or [^] tag above the edit box. If you don't see those controls then just manually type a HTML anchor tag like <a href="URI goes here">text goes here</a>.
Veni, vidi, abiit domum

Not clear for me. Supose I like to refer in my solution to your solution #1. Configure unity Container[^]
How can I get the href which points exactly to your solution?
Thank you for your patience with a beginner

You just copy the full address from the browser address bar.

Well my apologies, but I cannot make it much clearer. I assume that you do know how to select the text in the address bar and press "Ctrl+C"?

Thank you for your feedback. I think simply my assumption is wrong. I always tried to make a link to a specific solution, but it seems this is not possible. Only a link to a question seems to be possible.

As the latest enactment of Thailand's national political psychodrama flirts with (yet another) denouement today, on the streets of Bangkok ("Krungthep," literally, the "City of Angels," always the venue for such dangerous cataclysms in the body-politic of this Kingdom of Smiles and Paradoxes-Without-Cognitive-Dissonance), on this, the shortest day of the year, the Solstice ...
How appropriate the OED word-of-the-day-e-mail brings: Quote: † abligurition, n.
[‘ Extravagant spending on food and drink.’]
Etymology: < post-classical Latin abligurition-, abliguritio action of devouring (4th cent.) < classical Latin abligūrīt-, past participial stem of abligūrīre to squander on dainties ( < ab- ab- prefix + ligūrīre (also ligurrīre) to be dainty, lick, lick up: see ligurion n.) + -iō -ion suffix1. Compare earlier abligurie n.
Obs. rare—0.
Extravagant spending on food and drink.
1742 N. Bailey Universal Etymol. Eng. Dict., Abligurition, a prodigal spending in Belly-Cheere.
Well ... given almost all my sense of taste is gone (physically, that is), I am afraid my consumption of dainties will be confined to just another liter of fresh-made soy-milk, sweetened with the aphrodisiacal ambrosia of the exudate of the female sugar-palm tree.
I do want to wish all of you, my mentors, peers, boon companions making merit in the service of the Goddess Techne ... and your families ... a happy, and healthy, Holy-Holi-Days !
“I'm an artist: it's self evident that word implies looking for something all the time without ever finding it in full. It is the opposite of saying : 'I know all about it. I've already found it.'
As far as I'm concerned, the word means: 'I am looking. I am hunting for it. I am deeply involved.'”

Sounds like, well, interesting nog you're imbibing there Bill. Best wishes of the season, and do keep your head down while the psychodrama plays out.

So, I've been working in an office for six weeks now, and loving it. My last job got me interested in learning more about SQL, and my first task in my new job was basically ALL SQL, so all that study paid off. I've really come to love SQL, actually, so I've decided to write a series of articles on it. It's a long time since I wrote for CP, it feels good to be back in the saddle, as such.

That is a great article. I'd rather link to it, than duplicate it. I will seek to do that.
