Can somebody help me use this function! It return a pointer to a unsigned byte, but how can I convert it to oointer to a null-terminated string ? This doesn´t work: unsigned BYTE *test = glGetString(GL_VENDOR); MessageBox(0, (char*)test, 0, 0); Gandalf the White

hi Gandalf,

you can try:
int sprintf(char *string,const *format_string,...)
ex:
sprintf(buffer,"%d",number);
//buffer will contain number
