I have tried to get your tut 1 to compile know under both 98 and nt4 with no luck. below is the error message from vis c++ 6.
I have tried to mail you but not sure if they are getting through (had a few problems recently with the isp).
eworks\opengl\lesson1\main.c(204) : error C2143: syntax error : missing '';'' before ''type''
c:\courseworks\opengl\lesson1\main.c(233) : error C2065: ''pfd'' : undeclared identifier

c:\courseworks\opengl\lesson1\main.c(280) : warning C4142: benign redefinition of type
Error executing cl.exe.
I have followed the tutorial checked it, downloaded the current files from the site, checked them and still cant get any further.
Are there some settings in the project that i need to change or something like that. I can use opengl under a console application with no problems, so I am assuming that the problems lie with the windows setup. I have tried ron fosners simple windows program and it compiles fine ( from yellow book), so I dont know what to try next.
I have been at this know for a week so any help would be greatfully excepted.
yours in desperation
