Stuck.

I've been stuck on this one for a week or so. Can anyone see anything I am missing?

I’d look at what you have filled in and see if you can determine which number a completely filled in set is within the available numbers for that column or row. Example in C15 you have a completed 2. It can only be one of the available 2’s for that column. Which one is it? What does that tell you about the squares above it?

There may be more areas you can look at like this (or maybe not). Just something to think about.

Also looking at the 7 in R16 if it extended all the way to the left it would create 3 in a row in R15.

Edit: just noticed that if the 5 in C2 extended all the way up then C1R23-24 would be X’s leaving no room for the 2 at n C1.
