There are two questions.. 1) can we have browse option as in windows??..like if we want to select a file(in windows) we either enter the path or go for browse option....can we have the same in matlab?

Hi,

1) I guess you are looking for the uigetfile function, that opens a browse dialog. You could e.g. have in your GUI a pushbutton named "..." that calls uigetfile.

2) for a path:

exist(thePath, 'dir')
