Hi, I am making a word search and i have letter plotted in a grid. Now to check whether a location has the letter that the user inputs, is there a way i can use whatdotcolor to do the task? Or is there any way?

Ack, whatdotcolour! Just use a 2D array to store the character in each spot, and when a location in selected you can construct a word based on the characters selected and the direction they were selected in. Then compare this newly constructed word to the words that the user is searching for.
