File reading and printing in openGL

[gargimails]

Hi,

I am making a GUI in visual c++ and using OpenGL for drawing. I want to read a word from text file and print it on openGL screen.I need to read the word to be printed from file, as well as its x & y co-ordinates also from file. Can anyone suggest how to go about?
