    Open GL Error!

    I have been running through programs that I have found on the internet that use Open GL and they all work fine, but when I view the source and try to compile it it gives me this error:

    '[Linker Error] "C:\...\Glut32.lib" contains invalid OMF record, type 0x21 (possibly COFF)'

    I am using Borland's C++ Builder 5. I don't know what this means and I am new to Open GL programming. I don't know how I can fix this unless I just have a buggy Glut32.lib. Can someone please help?!?!?!

    Re: Open GL Error!

    Your glut32.lib is for VC++, get a Borland compatible at: http://sites.netscape.net/ptrpck/borland.htm
    or try to run coff2omf on your glut32.lib
