MATLAB: GUI Pushbutton, accessing another file

guipush buttonpushbutton

Hello,
I am fairly new to matlab, and attempting to make a basic GUI that has two pushbuttons, along with some other things. My question relates to the pushbuttons. I am wondering how to write the code so that when the user clicks a pushbutton, it opens up another file.
So, matlab automatically brings up:
% --- Executes on button press in pushbutton1.
function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to pushbutton1 (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
and I am wondering where I put in code to allow the pushbutton, when clicked, to open up my other m file?
Cheers~

Do you mean that your file is hardcoded into the GUI? If so, put this in the pushbutton callback:
edit mfilename
where you replace mfilename with the name of your M-File.
If the file is not in the current directory, you will have to add the path.
If that is not what you meant, you might want to use UIGETFILE instead:
[fnam,pth] = uigetfile('*m')
edit([pth fnam])
