MATLAB: How to iteratively increase number in filename

for looprenaming

I have a list of files named ######-######-####XX, where # is an arbitrary number (same for all files), and XX is 01:20. I'm trying to rename all the files by adding 1 to the frame number, so the files will effectively go from 02:21. I tried using the code below, but soon realized that adding 1 to 9 will not make 19 go to 20. Does anyone have a better solution for this? Thanks in advance.
list=dir('*.dcm')
names={list.name}
for m=1:length(list)
    revnames=names(end:-1:1)
    [~,name,ext]=fileparts(revnames{m})
    OldName=[name,ext]
    A=num2str(name)
    A(end)=(A(end)+1)
    NewName=[A,ext]
    copyfile(OldName,NewName)
    clear A
end

list=dir('*.dcm');
for m=length(list):-1:1
  [~,name,ext]=fileparts(list.name{m});
  basename=name(1:end-1);   % strip the last two (numeric) characters 
  basenumb=str2num(name(end-1):end);  % convert the numeric characters 
  newnum=basenumb+1;                  % and increment it
  copyfile(list(m).name,fullfile([basename num2str(newnum,'%02d')],ext));
end
NB:
Must run the loop from top down to avoid overwriting the existing '02' file with the renamed '01', one. Also, this presumes the dir() list is returned sorted which is generally so although "defensive programming" would be to do so to ensure it is before beginning the loop.
Also, if you don't know a priori are only two numeric digits at the end would need to do a search to determine that length. If the last '#' character were also to be numeric that could be problematic to discern w/o some other decoding rules.
