If i have an object (or a point) moving in 3D space how would i go about
calculating a transformation for the viewpoint (rotation about all axes?)
that would keep the it centered on the object so that the object never
became 'lost'? - i hope that makes sense!!

Thanks,

If you want that, then don't rotate the camera, but just rotate the object
;-)

...
glTranslatef( 0,0,-5 );
glRotatef( Angle, 1,1,1 );
DrawMy3DObject();
...
