There's a project here on Code Project that does just this.

Thanks for a link. Surprisingly high quality article for a "strange" purpose - "Realtime Webcam Sudoku Solver"! Sounds like "puzzle to solve a puzzle" in C++ (which is a puzzle itself).

There are a lot of Articals on CodeProject on how to OCR. Some of them talk about free methods but provide less features than normal such as these:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/238114/Realtime-Webcam-Sudoku-Solver
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/17291/OCR-With-MODI-in-Visual-C

On the other hand, there are some commercial toolkits such as leadtools that provides more features. You can find an article on their OCR in the following link:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/317163/OCR-with-LEADTOOLS-The-Better-Choice

Even though the article is written for .NET they have also C++ libraries.
