I was going to try to create an app to do Sudoku puzzles, and thought it would be easier if one dimension referred to the number of the squares in the boxes, one referred to the element in the rows, and one referred to the columns.


You'd really want a 2D array, I think. You'd then refer to the .Text property of the associated text box. I'm having difficulty seeing how a 3D array would help.


I wanted a 3 dimensional array, because I could use one dimesion to compare the numbers in the rows, one to compare the numbers in the columns, and one to compare the numbers in the smaller bozes (and of course look for one lone number in each of the boxes, which would be a solution).
