Hey Leon,

I was having trouble opening up GUIs that I created in guide as well, and getting all sorts of errors. What I noticed was that I had modified a CreateFcn the *.m file for the GUI so that it would get variables from another GUI (this particular gui that I was trying to open was a sub gui, and I edited the code in the CreateFcn for a popupmenu). 

This code, in the CreateFcn was the culprit. I guess when guide was trying to open the *.fig, it reads the *.m file and gets confused when it sees a call in a CreateFcn to another GUI. Anyways, I just commented the code (NOT the entire CreateFcn) and it opened up just fine!

Hope that helps,

Andrzej
