Release of the MacroSudoku v1.4 Bêta

Dear friends,

I'm happy to release today the v1.2 of MacroSudoku.

You can download the file here:

The new features include:
_ Check that the numbers entered are between 1 and 9 (and thus prevent an error).
_ Add time limitations for solution and generation of Sudoku. These limitations are set in the 'Options' sheet. Writing '0' disable the limitation.
_ Generate a Sudoku to the set difficulty (from 'Very Easy' to 'Difficult'). Unfortunately 'Very Difficult' still do not work, and is thus still disabled.
_ Can write the Log on several columns, and prevent it to go after the line 65536 (Excel limitation). This also prevent an error.
_ Do not add a space as the first character of the status line (check if the status line is empty or not before adding any text to it).

Further improvements will soon include:
_ Give the options to generate a new Sudoku OR to take it from the database
_ Increase the Sudoku database to include more 'Very Easy', 'Easy', 'Medium' Sudokus
_ Correct the bug that makes the rating change if AllSolution is 'On' or 'Off'
_ Give the opportunity to make a printable sheet of 8 Sudokus
_ Create a "High-Scores" sheet, and make it work
_ Implement a timer, counting how long does the user need to solve the grid (with a pause/resume function, when paused hide the grid)

As usual, any comment/feedback/help is more than welcome!
