How to use dlmread with a txt file not in Matlab directory?

Hi,

I'm using this piece of code to read from a .txt file but it can only read files that are in the directory of the script... How can i read a file located in another directory? i don't want to use the import wizard since the data in .txt file is always the same and with the same length... Also i want to build a standalone app so i want it to be as simple as i could be.

[filename2, pathname2] = uigetfile( ...
{'*.txt;',  'All Files (*.*)'}, ...
   'Select the file');

handles.filename = filename2;
handles.pathname = pathname2;

x_i=dlmread(filename2, '\t',[1 0 39 0]);

fi=dlmread(filename2, '\t',[1 1 39 1]);

fi_theta=dlmread(filename2, '\t',[1 2 90 2]);

Lmean=dlmread(filename2, '\t',[1 3 1 3]);

Thanks
