Philip,

A fairly nice (and fairly full-featured) Sudoku program in Visual Basic (with source supplied) is Sudoku Creator/Solver at Planet Source Code:

    http://snurl.com/hcpu

It's not a bare-bones program, however, so it may be a bit difficult to convert to REALbasic.

Here's a pretty decent Sudoku solver program in Visual Basic, also at Planet Source Code:

    http://snurl.com/hcpz

I've tried the two preceding programs in VB 6.0. Here's a Visual Basic Sudoku Solver program that I have not tried, but which may be worth looking at:

I don't know to what extent any of these might help in creating a REALbasic program to create or solve Sodoku programs. I've had some success in converting some VB programs to RB, but most of them have been rather simple.

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
