how to transfrer data in guide ?

Hi, I have built a UI in guide. I have created an "edit text" function. I wish to allow the user to insert a numeric value and have that value saved and reused in other functions in my program. the problem is that if the user does not insert a value an error occurs. how can i assign a default value (and have it usable in all functions in the program)? thanks

In you opening function insert a code below:

set(handles.edit1,'string','YourDefaultValue')

Which functions? to read your value just use

YourValue= str2double(get(handles.edit1,'string'))

You can also use guidata to transfer your data

i tried guidata but for some reason it didnt save it... (i used it several times in my program and it worked fine but for this speceific application it didnt).

what you said worked, thanks
