Here is where I'm stuck:

036 802 407
070 400 300
400 731 068

317 684 000
600 000 784
000 275 136

283 547 691
000 020 875
700 908 243

The clue is a 9 at Row 3, Column 7.

How did they get this ? Question

They have gone barking mad.

The clue should be 5 in r3c7.

The previous reply is correct, although perhaps not very helpful.
There is a 5 in r8c9 and a 5 in r6c6. This means that the only possible places for a 5 in col 1 are in r1 or r2. Therefore, there cannot be a 5 in either of r3c2 and r3c3 leaving r3c7 as the only remaining candidate for 5 in row 3.

I forgot to log in before posting my reply so I appeared as an anonymous "guest". Hope I helped.

As always, I am always amazed that after looking at something for a great deal of time how I could possibly overlook something rather simple.

Thanks again.
