Opening FileMaker table from another application

I'm developing a simple Java Swing app, the purpose of which is to allow the user to

open one of the particular FileMaker database of choice (via a button).

It's simple enough for the Java app to call filemaker.exe. But what arguments need

to be sent to open the desired .fp5?

Thanks.

Why not just call the desired FP5 file? It shouldn't matter what platform, if the user has FileMaker installed, the FP5 file should just open by calling it by any application. If they don't have FileMaker, they won't be able to open it anyway.
