    Hey guys can you please help with this, I just cant get it.

    I have a simulink model with the name BusAssignment and with that I have an edit box inside a GUI with a string BusAssignment. I am trying to get the mfile to read the String and simulate it as it is the name of the simulink model.

    At the moment I have the follow piece of code for that section


    SimulinkName = get(handles.simulinkname, 'String'); %takes the simulink model name

    sim(SimulinkName) %runs the simulink model


    SimulinkName gives back BusAssignment but when it goes to sim it trys to simulate SimulinkName which is not right and give this error:

    ??? Error using ==> GUIForProject>student_SelectionChangeFcn at 1280
    Unable to open file for reading: "SimulinkName.mdl".

    For it to work I need it to do the following

    sim('BusAssignment')



    Any suggestions?
