Need help opening and reading files from my app

[DeadWorkerBee]

I'm new here and I'm not sure this forum can help me. I'm developing an app based on my Windows app. Both work. BUT I want to permit users to look at the files on the phone, and select one for use by the app. I code in C# and Xamarin. The code which lets the user see the files is this:

Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ActionGetContent);                 
intent.SetType("*/*");               
StartActivityForResult(intent, 1);

And that works OK but I don't see how I can "capture" clicking on the file to open it. Sort of like with FX.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
