Windows Forms

You don''t need a specific tutorial. Every form has a Handle property, which just returns the HWND of the underlying window. From there, just proceed as you would normally (i.e. find any other opengl tutorial for windows, and remeber that any mention of HWND is talking about this Handle property.)

I though he just wanted Windows Forms, not neccesarily C#... If you just want Windows Forms, my post is all you need. If you want OpenGL + C#, then go with csgl (though I''d wait until DX9 before doing 3D with C# or any other .NET language.)

CSGL isn''t restricted to C# only, despite the name. It should work with any .NET language.

Yeah, you''re right, it should. I just think it''s going to be overkill. Especially since VC++.NET has slightly better native interop than C# (in that you can mix native and .NET together). So it''d probably be easier to just use opengl directly...

Actually, I''m not sure how it''d work if you used VC++.NET, so maybe csgl is your only option. I haven''t worked in .NET much yet (well, I haven''t used many interop features at least)

Still, I''d wait until DX9. .NET interop probably isn''t going to be all that fast, and DX9 should be quite easy to use from a .NET language.
