The ability to use dot in a file name is not available in MATLAB. Because dot is an operater in MATLAB.
There are no workarounds.

dot cannot be used as part of a m file name (except the final .m), simulink model name, function name, variable name, field name, method name, or property name . It can be used as part of a data file name including as part of a mat file name.
