OpenGL in only part of the screen

Hello all,
I won’t to know if I can use a 4 generation language (VB, JAVA, etc) to uses it’s regular create window functionality under what ever OS, and define half the screen to OpenGL rendering and the other half dedicated to the language’s native GUI controls. An example would be a java screen with OpenGL on the right side, and buttons running down on the left side. I’m not really going to use Java, but a similiar language that is portable.

Is this possible?

thanks in advance,
Brad
