How to read in data in matlab from text files in a folder automatically?

Hello,

I have a folder with text files that contains 40 columns with first row containing headers and rest of the rows with various values. I want to write a code in which we select just the folder and matlab read in data from the text files, imports each column as column vector and saves the files with text file name.

Can anyone guide me how to approach this problem to generate the code?

I imagine he did, using the code from the FAQ, like in the link I gave below. If you need to also, I recommend that you also look in the FAQ instead of waiting who-knows-how-long for Pratik to answer you.
