Check out the following link http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/questdlg.html. You can use a question dialog to query the user if he/she wishes to start the program or not. Based on that result, the program will continue (or not).

Cancel and OK are hardcoded in inputdlg

OKHandle=uicontrol(InputFig     ,              ...
  BtnInfo      , ...
  'Position'   ,[ FigWidth-2*BtnWidth-2*DefOffset DefOffset BtnWidth BtnHeight ] , ...
  'KeyPressFcn',@doControlKeyPress , ...
  'String'     ,'OK'        , ...
  'Callback'   ,@doCallback , ...
  'Tag'        ,'OK'        , ...
  'UserData'   ,'OK'          ...
  );
setdefaultbutton(InputFig, OKHandle);
CancelHandle=uicontrol(InputFig     ,              ...
  BtnInfo      , ...
  'Position'   ,[ FigWidth-BtnWidth-DefOffset DefOffset BtnWidth BtnHeight ]           , ...
  'KeyPressFcn',@doControlKeyPress            , ...
  'String'     ,xlate('Cancel', '-s')    , ...
  'Callback'   ,@doCallback , ...
  'Tag'        ,'Cancel'    , ...
  'UserData'   ,'Cancel'      ...
  ); %#ok

Above is code from inputdlg.m.

If you change in inputdlg.m, it will affect all inputdlg usages.

Check other similar functions if they are useful.

   dialog, errordlg, helpdlg, listdlg, msgbox,
       questdlg, textwrap, uiwait, warndlg

MATLAB: Check if user pressed the button “OK” in msgbox

I solved it by using dialog and adding an callback to the button. Maybe not the simplest solution, but it is a solution which works for now :-) Anyway thank you TastyPastry!
