execute my file’s Application in C#

Question

My application creates files with a ".mhm" extension.

I'd like for my application to open and process these files when I double-click them. Current behavior is that when I double-click the file, my application opens but does not process the file.

How can I read the args parameter of Main() method in C# 2008?

I want load my file's that save my application.what do i do? — mohammad reza, Sep 21 '09 at 15:27
Mohammad, you have accepted an answer to your identical question previously. Am I missing something? — Dirk Vollmar, Sep 21 '09 at 15:34

If I understand your question correctly you just use:

public void static Main(string args[])
{
...
}

"Hi

My Application creates files with the .MHM file extension. I would like my application to be associated with this file extension so that when a MHM file is executed, my application is too, with the file path as the arguments for the main method of my application."

That's what I understood.

Grzenio has the right idea -

public void static Main(string args[])
{ 
...
}

but to push your application into the shell would take extra research, you'd have to look into integrating your application into the Shell (using the registry).

EDIT: Thanks for the edit of the question Chris, trying to see things a bit wider here... Perhaps the arguments solution was all the OP needed.
