Create two vba-based macros, one that will generate crossword puzzles and the other word search puzzles and incorporate them into the Microsoft Word Add-in for Teachers that can be found here: [login to view URL] The format of the words and clues that the user selects for use in the puzzle must be the same as the basic crossword generator that already exists on the add-in toolbar: each word on a new line and separated from its clue with a plus sign (+). If the user fails to select at least 5 words (with or without clues), give a feedback message and stop. Before generation, users should be requested the size of the grid (8x8, 12x12, 16x16, 20x20) using radio buttons on a pop-up window with the options to GO or CANCEL: While trying to find a solution, display a "Creating puzzle. Please Wait." pop-up message, with the option to CANCEL. Try to fit as many of the selected words as possible into the requested grid. Once a puzzle is found, give this message: "Puzzle Created. {$num} out of 12 words used." with the option to: BUILD PUZZLE, TRY AGAIN or CANCEL If BUILD PUZZLE is chosen, create the puzzle. If TRY AGAIN is chosen, try to find another solution. If CANCEL is chosen then cancel. When building the puzzle, please follow the formatting of the attached .doc files. Each macro should create 2 documents: the student's puzzle and the teacher's answer key. The format of the answer key is shown in the attached .doc file. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
