solve for each number first - try to fill in the "gimmies". Then go row/column or box to fill in the rest. Boxes with 5 or more answers will be easiest to fill in first.

You can't duplicate numbers in any 9 square box, row or column. I usually start by looking for numbers that are used the most. Then find out where another one would do. I go rows, then columns. Then I pick a row and look for each number, if it's not in that row, I check the column and box. Sometimes you'll know exactly where it goes, sometimes you'll have a choice of a couple of spaces and can make notes in the corner with a pencil (that you can erase later). Do this with each number, in each row. Then I go to the columns and finally the squares. Then I start all over with rows. When I'm stuck, I'll try a number in a box and see if it works or if I end up with a problem and have to erase. Just keep up with what you're sure of (I use a pen for them) and what you're experimenting with.

go along with the first nine boxes, then the rows, then columns. remember, it has to be all different to fit and correct.
