Hello,
My code :

string[] args = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs();
            int len = args.Length;
            if (len > 1)
            {
                string Path = args[len - 1];
                MessageBox.Show(Path);
            }

but the problem is the code well give me the path in the first time , after that for each time i try to get the path he will give me the first path.

Instead of doing it that way, try this:

string[] args = Environment.GetCommandLineArgs();
foreach(string arg in args)
{
    MessageBox.Show(arg);
}

From you ============
thank you ,
but this code will give me the path of the .exe file

but my application is Single-Instance

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/CSSIApp.asp[^]

what i want is when i open .txt file by "Open With" i want my application to give me the path of the .txt in each time i open .txt

My Response ==============

The reason you're seeing that is because your app is already open, and hasn't been shut down and restarted. You have to add some code where you're stopping a second instance from running.
