Default Alternative to ShellExecute

Hi-
I have a situation where I wish to call a file and I don't think
ShellExecute is going to work.

Specifically, the file I want to call usually opens with Wordpad of
Notepad, but it is actually a set of scripts that are run by a
specific retail systems program.

So the question is, how do I specify the program I want to run when I
execute a call on the file?

Thanks
