You are now following this Submission

This function allows programmatic GUI users to view all the files and folders in a directory. It is an expansion of the 'Interactive List Box (GUIDE)' found here: http://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/creating_guis/list-box-directory-reader-guide.html

To implement, copy the code into the function section of your matlab file and then call the function once all the gui components are loaded. The file location and the name of the popup box will need to be specified.
