I have a generic openfile.m and openfile.fig that I use for a template.

After I have copied these to a new directory for a new project, whats the best way to rename these to something more relevant to the new project?

Thanks Jason

Hi,

if they are both files created by GUIDE, the best way is to open GUIDE again and use menu File->Save as. This makes sure that everything is renamed correctly.

PS: do not simply rename the files, this won't work...
