I am not sure if variable is the correct term, but I need a way to when I double click a file extension it remembers that files name.
Example if I double click test.doc it needs to remember the test so I can use it in later parts of the program. Is this possible? If so how would one code this?

I'll let you figure out the double click part, but here's an example that will get you the file name when you click on it:
Code:
~LButton::
MouseGetPos, , , win, control
ControlGet, hwnd, hwnd, , %control%, ahk_id %win%
Acc := COM_AccessibleObjectFromWindow( hwnd )
itemNum := Acc.accSelection
fileName := Acc.accName( itemNum )
MsgBox, %fileName%

**NOTE** - this example uses AHKL & COM_L
