When you double click on the associated file, the short file name is passed
on the command line to your application. I typically use LONGPATH() to
convert this before using it in the program. Use COMMAND() to retrieve in
the program before the files are opened.
Tim Phillips adds:
I am using Windows 2000 Professional and that is passing the long path with "
marks when the path would use it.
