I have been making a game in Win32 API... it was a simple hangman game.. i was just wondeirng if i should just drop doing it there and pick it up in OpenGL ... I mean I would do this to teach myself because I have never done any openGL before. but can things like a hangman game where u enter a text letter into a box and have it check see if its part of the word and if not add the head and if it is replace that part of the word on the screen with the letter? Iam just curious. any info would be great. thanks

Yeah I''m sure you could do that. Check out the tutorials at
http://nehe.gamedev.net
They''re good for getting started and they use the Win32 API to setup the windows and handle events, so it would be familiar to you. Best of luck!
