any helpp??
One answer is right in front of you --
This means that your compiler is fairly new (probably VS 2005...) and doesn't want you to use old fopen() -- prefer if you used fopen_s() which is MS only afaik. Either way, changing that won't fix your linker bug -- bug looks like a library is missing from the include path, or that you've not got glaux.h included properly. The copy downloaded from the website should be OK (once project format is converted), but other than that, dunno what to suggest :)

that is only a warning and a minor annoyance, the real deal is found four lines down and can be fixed using the glAux replacement code found in my signature.
