The grid you posted has a unique solution but it requires trial-and-error to solve. Are you sure you copied the starting grid correctly? Where did you get this puzzle?

Thanks for your reply the starting grid is shown below. I have gone as far as i can go. see first post. Was led to believe that there would be a logic solution to solve these babies with out having to guess?

All Pappocom puzzles have unique solutions that do not require trial-and-error to solve. I will ask again, where did you get this puzzle from?

It would have been more appropriate to have posted your question either here or here. The support area is meant for questions relating to the Pappocom software.
