Once you have set the association, when you double-click the file, it's name and full path are passed to your app as _CommandLineArgs. This means you can grab the name of the file when you app starts up and do what ever you want with it.

Lets say your app was a text editor. You could use the following to load the text file that was double-clicked, into an input object

Put this in the OnLoad event of a page.

if _CommandLineArgs[1] then

	if String.Left(_CommandLineArgs[1], 3) ~= "SFX" then
	
		YourFile = _CommandLineArgs[1]
		
		sText = TextFile.ReadToString(YourFile)
		
		Input.SetEnabled("input1", sText)
				
	end
end
