Will someone tell me how to link GLUT in my program. I''m using visual c++ 5.0, and I can get a standard opengl program to work with opengl32.lib, glu.lib, glaux.lib and all that other stuff, but if I try to use glut32.lib, it gives me a linker error everytime, can someone help. Nazmir

First, look into your VC++ directory under ''lib'' if you have an file called glut32.lib, everything should be fine. But glut32.lib doesn''t contain this file standardly!

Try to get it on www.opengl.org...

I hope this stuff helped you.
I actually had the same problem. I did have glut32.lib in my library directory, and the glut32.dll in my windows/system directory but I still got link errors. However, this was using the most recent (stable??) version of GLUT (3.7.2), I went back and installed the 3.7.beta version, and now things work great (except for some texture stuff, see my topic above)
