Thread Subject: modify pushbutton caption

I've created a figure with GUI, so m-file was created
automatically. The figure contains 2 buttons. The caption
of one button has to be changed by clicking on this button.
How can I do this. I've tried:

function pushbutton1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)

set (pushbutton1, 'String', 'Button's name')

but I become an error: Undefined function or
variable 'pushbutton1'.
So, what is the correct way to do this?
Thanks for help

You need to call 'set' on the HANDLE to the pushbutton, I
believe. Assuming the tag for the push button is actually
pushbutton1 (you can check this in GUIDE), try:

set(handles.pushbutton1,'String','Button Name');

In this case, you can use this code

   set(hObject,'String','Button Name');

because hObject is handle of pushbutton1.
