Is there a way to create a script that opens up a file in the native client instead of web access? Thought of a bat script: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Laserfiche\Client\LF.exe". That only opens the client and not the file they. A client wants to able to implement this with Salesforce.

In bat script, did you try to provide filename as an argument? Like Lf.exe test.doc. There are lot of argument options for lf client.

Since SalesForce is a web application, it is pretty restricted in the ways that it can interact with your local machine. They can't launch applications directly, but they can send files to the browser which a local application opens. If you can generate a Laserfiche shortcut file and have SalesForce send it to the browser, this should get the client to open to your document.
