Store multiple .m file names in guidata

Hello. I am working on a conversion tool for matlab. I would like to load multiple files into my gui, load its all variables then process it. So the picture displays the general outline for the gui.

I am actually stucked at 'star-ed' step. I would like to load the all the files set by the range then temporarily store into gui(I am guessing I have to use guidata) but is there any suggestion I could achieve this?

Grab natsortfiles() from the File Exchange: otherwise you are going to end up listing D1F10 before D1F2 .

Once you have the names well ordered, the two drop boxes together will give you a range of indices. Sub-select that range of indices from the file name list, creating a cell array of strings. You can store that as a field in the handles structure and then guidata() to update the handles structure.
