That isn't going to work, because PEP and KO are not defined variables.
A variable has to have a definition in order to appear in an argument
list for a function call.
What would work is if instead the parameter was 'PEP' and 'KO' each in
quotes.
fid = fopen(sprintf('V:\\Desktop\\%s.csv', FileNameVariable));

Yes, just like that.
