[ afile workdir ] = uigetfile( '*.dat','Select DAT-file' );shortfilename = strrep( afile, '.DAT', '' );cd( workdir );fid = fopen( afile );
Whenever I run this code the first time, and select a file that is in another directory (not my workdir or a path that is added) I get an error about Matlab not able to open the file. At that point, Matlab's Current Folder window switches to the directory where the DAT file is. When I run it again, it works like it is supposed to.
How can I fix this issue? So what do I need to change that whenever I select a file that is not in a folder that is my workdir or added path, that it switches the workdir to that directory and opens the file…
