>I wanted to paste the content of PADx function implementation published in SQL Tips column. E.g. in several of his tips Sergey provided a SQL Server implementation of some VFP functions. It's always a fourth tip. Would it be OK to publish this?
As I said, if it is not a reference to something elsewhere on the net then it is something that was created specifically for the magazines. Thus, it would not be possible for someone to extract that content and use it elsewhere.
