Like is customary in Word, Excel and so on, once you double-click a working 
document, and Word opens with that particular working file.

Similarly, I want to open my Delphi Application (fit.exe) with the file that 
I double-clicked (eg, test.ft2).  The installshield already takes care of 
linking the application with the *.ft2 extension, but how can I tell the 
program which working file was clicked last?  How can it "read" that 
filename from Windows?

Thanks for helping out.
