Alternatives to import excel files

Hello everybody,

I need to use the command xlsread(filename) but unfortunately I can not use instructions like uigetfile, uiopen or similar to get access to this dir or filename.

The reason is because I am working into a complicate GUI and it needs to be done it inside of a figure.

Something like this;

Are there other alternatives?

thanks!

Hi, alternatively take a look at uitree, there is the example of displaying a directory tree (which can be used as selector as well):

t = uitree('v0', 'Root', 'C:\')
