I found an area in MSDN that has files to show how to use OpenGL in VC++ but get over 250 error when I attempt to compile. Am I going to have to fix them so I can see hoe to use it with VC++ Express
Is there a conversion utility

Just OpenGL can be used in express 2005.
I'm doing it. :)
Any about OpenGL, I may help you.

Unfortunately, since that sample uses MFC, and MFC is not available in the Express editions, you'll probably have to purchase the Standard Editions or higher.
However (seeing how that code is over 11 years old), the use of MFC may not be the only problem you face with that old code. After all, it predates the ISO C++'98 standard, which is the version of C++ that Microsoft supports.

I would appreciate help. I have never programmed on a Windows machine before. Did some DOS stuff years ago.
What I'm doing is that I used VCExpress to build a Windows program with a split pane. I have buttons in the right pane and wish to run some OpenGL code I did under Unix on the left side.
Now I need to know how to get the OGL inserted into the left pane. I think I can make it run after that.
What do you suggest If you'd prefer, we can do this by e-mail - rechmbrs@cox.net
