>Simplest, using the registry class in the FFC, would be

SET CLASSLIB TO Registry.vcx ADDITIVE
>oReg = CREATEOBJECT("Registry")
>RELEASE CLASSLIB Registry
>IF oReg.IsKey("wrifile")
>  IF oReg.OpenKey("wrifile\Shell\Open\Command") = 0
>    lcbuffer = SPACE(260)
>    oReg.GetKeyValue("", @lcbuffer)
>    oReg.CloseKey
>  ENDIF
>ENDIF
>oReg = NULL

lcbuffer will contain something like this: C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\WORDPAD.EXE "%1".
