You should be able to pass your client file as a parameter to the sequence editor.

The sequence editor is located in: C:\Program Files (x86)\National Instruments\TestStand 2019\Bin\seqedit.exe

 

So basically you could make a shortcut on the desktop that would point to that executable and then pass your file as a parameter using the help from the image here.

 

IF you are not talking about opening it from the command line programmatically then you can use Engine.GetSequenceFileEx to open one dynamically.  https://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052AA-01/tsapiref/reftopics/engine_getsequencefileex_m/

 

Maybe you can clarify specifically what you are trying to do and the solution could be different than what i've suggested.  But these are based on the information you've given.

 

Hope this helps,

And if you want to open a sequence file in the SeqEdit (display file in tabs) you can use App Mgr (see attached example). Replace <Sequence File Path> with your file path.
