A quick Google search for open source code will reveal a Visual Basic
Sudoku solver (and Perl, and Python, and C++, and... you get the
idea). Generators aren't too far from there, either. The trick to
creating a proper Sudoku puzzle is that it can only have one solution.

I've toyed around with this as well, but deadlines, other
priorities...you know how it goes...

cheers
