Though the app is not scriptable, you may script Finder to open it.

For instance maybe you could make an applet, possibly named with the same
name as your file, which would contain something like:

------------- untested
tell application "Finder" to open alias theFile using alias theApp
-------------

theFile would contain the path to the file, and theApp would contain the
path to the "wanted" application.
