Thank you for your reply, but I am still having troubles. It is on windows XP. I am using the Visual Studio 2005. I will try to explain my problem from the beginning,because I don't really understand how to make it run. 1) to have run my application on my computer, I had to add some libraries to my project. Configuration Properties->Linker->Command Line - "wsock32.lib opengl32.lib glu32.lib fltk.lib fltkgl.lib flulibd.lib comctl32.lib" 2)Configuration Properties->C/C++->Code Generation->Runtime Library - "Multi-threaded DLL (/MD)"...I found somewhere that I should change this to Multi-threaded, but when I do so, I get error LNK2005 ...already defined in LIBCMT.lib file:MSVCRT.lib 3)I found that for running the C++ application from Visual Studio 2005, you need to install vcredist_x86.exe file, which contains some run time libraries for c++. So I did it on the other computer. Now, when I want to run my app on other computer, what files, except the exe file from release folder of my project, do I have to provide. Thanks again for your reply and sorry for my maybe stupid questions - I am completely new in this problematic.
