Thanks for that selfless offer(!)
I seem to have all I need.

I'm just detecting if ParamStr(1) has a value in the OnCreate event of the main 
form and opening the the viewer with that filename if it does.
If there is no value then the form just displays as normal with a button to 
start the file selection process.

That's really all I need for this.

You can have lots of parameters where lots >= 0
Use ParamCount if you want to loop through them.
I use command line parameters quite a lot so let me know if you want some
snippets. I don't really want to post them cos I'm ... well, shy ... and
self-conscious.

Got it.
Didn't realise about the contents of both of the Parameters.

Is it possible to do what I want?  and what is the secret?

Make sure the association has a "%1" after the name of your application

ParamCount and ParamStr(i) where I is a number.

ParamStr(0) = Application Path and Exe Name
ParamStr(1) = First parameter passed

I want to still be able to use the file dialogue if no parameter is
passed.

just ignore parameters then

cheers,
Jeremy
