To determine the efficiency of the sorting algorithm, try timing a case with 500 rows. If the time is about 10-20 seconds, then the algorithm used is probably an "n*log(n)" method. If the time is 5-10 seconds, then it's probably an "n^2" method (with an incredibly small constant). -michael New, faster SUDOKU v2.0 solver for Apple II's!
