OpenGl labeling

[Digga]

Hello,
I have a small geometric view program and I would like to label each feature with its name ( circle 1, point 6 etc ) I have searched the web for a solution unsuccessfully.
I am wondering if this is a very difficult task or am I missing something.

My view is primarly 2D and is written in MFC.

Any help would be great!!
