I am writing some OpenGL programs using GLUT as my windowing
interface, Every time I try to run my programs I can compile them but
then get the error

application has failed to start because glut32.dll was not found

glut32.dll is in the bin folder for vc7 in my visual studio dot net
folder so I do have it
Should I be putting it somewhere else so that the program can find it
to use it or do I just need to re-get glut. Please help I have about
10 programs that are all having this same error

Thanks for any help and your time

Usually sticking stuff in C:\Windows\System32 does the trick. It needs to be
somewhere in your PATH env variables since your app doesn't care where it
was compiled, so probably isn't looking in the ..../bin directory.
