I found the answer to my GLUT question in the forum.  In case you are =
wondering here is what I included:

#define GLUT_DISABLE_ATEXIT_HACK=20
#include <windows.h>=20
#include <gl/gl.h>=20
#include <gl/glu.h>=20
#include <gl/glut.h>

I don't know what that define means.  Also, you *have* to put the =
windows.h before the glut.h.

Thanks,
Blumojo

Make sure you have linked to the libraries in the project options.  Do this by typing -lglut32 -lopengl32 -lglaux32 -lglu32

Generally you don't need glaux and glut in the same project, so I am not totally sure about the -lgluax option.

I was introduced to Borland C++ Builder when I did an Open University course
last year. A cut-down Version 3 was supplied for the course and it was a
real eye-opener - so much easier than MS VisualC++ but just as powerful. I
am completely converted.

If you imagine Visual Basic combined with the power of C++ ( also, it can
compile Delphi, so you can make use of the huge amount of free code on the
Internet ).

Do not compare it with Dev C++ as they are different animals.

If you are a student you can get the pro version for £69 without docs.

Regards,
        Kevin.
