Sir, I'm just experimenting with GUI ... i struck up in one point, where i need to call a .m file and to display its value in the edit box... i called the .m file as per http://www.mathworks.in/matlabcentral/answers/4213-how-to-call-contents-from-an-m-file-into-gui-callback-functions
but the thing is how to display a value in edit box, my progeam is just to calculate GLCM, and to display Contrast, Correlation ,Energy and Homogenety, i averaged these values, now to display them in edit box
% to display contrast'C' is the variable which have contrast value
function edit1_Callback(hObject, eventdata, handles)
% hObject handle to edit1 (see GCBO)
% eventdata reserved - to be defined in a future version of MATLAB
% handles structure with handles and user data (see GUIDATA)
C= str2double(get(hObject, 'String'));
if isnan(C)
set(hObject, 'String', 0);
errordlg('Input must be a number','Error');
end
handles.C=C
guidata(hObject,handles)
Suggestions please...

I would suggest that your .m is a function that gives a specific output. So, from the previous post (depending on how many outputs your .m file has), you can do this:
output1=mfilename;
% Might be [output1, output2]=mfilename depending on how many outputs you have
Now, if you want to set the value into the edit box, use the set() command
set(handles.editbox1, 'String', num2str(output1))
handles.editbox1 is the tag of the box that you want to edit and output1 is the value that you want to display.

When you run a .m file in a GUI, the variables in the .m file are not global and are kept internally in the .m file workspace. As a result, these variable names are not defined. This is why I suggested making it a function over creating global variables. (There are a lot of reasons to avoid globals)
