The defining matrix of a symplectic matrix

Just a beginner in symplectic geometry, and the definition of symplectic matrix bothers me.
A $2ntimes 2n$ real matrix $M$ is said to be symplectic if it satisfies the following condition:
$$M^TOmega M=Omega$$
where $Omega$ is a fixed $2ntimes 2n$ real, invertible and skew-symmetric matrix.
My question is: since $Omega$ can be arbitrary, so if $Omega,Delta$ are both satisfy the condition, then the following statement must be true:
$$M^TOmega M=Omega Rightarrow M^TDelta M=Delta.$$
But I don't know how to prove this. Can anyone help me? Thanks.

There are more than one symplectic structure oon a vector space, but they are isomorphic not equal, there exists a linear invertible map such that $fcircDelta =Omegacirc f$ where $Omega$ and $Delta$ are the linear map associated to the corresponding matrices.
