Creating a structure array containing names of external files

Good day , how can I create a function that will receive a structure array containing the names of the external files that will be read in separate field ?

[Rik]

You mean something similar to the dir function?

I think so because I have 3 external files that have to be received by the main function in a structure array format ,they will be used in the sub-functions

As Rik mentioned, it sounds like dir is what you want.

files = dir(path);

This will return a structure called 'files' which contains the names of all files in the path location (and other information). To call the specific file you want just do files(index).name.
