MATLAB: I have two guis and when i call gui2 from gui1 using a continue button, gui2 does not work. However, gui2 works on its own when opened using guide. I have included the code below, please help!

calling guicontinue button

function pushbutton5_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject    handle to pushbutton5 (see GCBO)
% eventdata  reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles    structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
   % get the handle of Gui1
   h = findobj('Tag','Gui1');
   % if exists (not empty)
   if ~isempty(h)
      % get handles and other user-defined data associated to Gui1
      g1data = guidata(h);
      % maybe you want to set the text in Gui2 with that from Gui1
      set(handles.text1,'String',get(g1data.edit1,'String'));
   end
  open page1.fig
  close(Opening_Page)

Preethi - as B.k. indicated, don't use open. Instead do the following
 function pushbutton5_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
 % launch the new GUI
 page1;
 % close the existing GUI
 close(handles.figure1);
In the above, I am assuming that page1 is the name of the other GUI that you want to open. I'm also assuming that figure1 is the tag for your current GUI (the one that you want to close). See http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/271560-have-a-pop-up-dialog-which-has-license-agreement which does something similar.
